Re: Microsoft.NET Framework 2 problem

First, see http://support.microsoft.com/kb/923100 (ignore the title).

If no joy, see this recent post in Windows Update newsgroup by my colleague MowGreen: http://groups.google.com/group/microsoft.public.windowsupdate/msg/4d76de7769d04493

It seems the cultprit is NET Framework 2.0. When I try to repair or
uninstall it (after uninstalling 3.0), the error message is "Patch
Package could not be opened. Verify that the patch package exists..."
When I try to install the 2.0 patch again, it says the program to be
upgraded may be missing. There's an MS bulletin (908077) on
troubleshooting 2.0 install problems, but none of the steps there work,
presumably for the same reason. MS Update is not picking up on the
problem at the 'checking computer' stage.

What do you suggest? Might reinstalling 2.0 on top work? If so, where
can I find a copy? I'm confused with the names, because there's a
redistributable version and compact version and perhaps others. Thanks.
