Subject: Re: Net Framework and Microsoft.NET Framework

 

I am currently running two PCs and have been struggling to get Microsoft
Maths 4.0 onto the main PC - a Desktop.

Both machines have Win 7 as their OS.

As I download the software from Microsoft, CNET or whomsoever FINE

As I Run the software to Install it - FINE

BUT then an error message appears - "we told you that you would need >NET
Framework 3.5 +SP1"

I do not use this software often so first time  here I tried to 'upgrade' to
vs 3.5 not realising that I already had vs 4 under the hood as it were.

The Install just never happened.

I tried this several times, using different sources of code.

I have tried to undo anything thatI might have done and restarted several
times!

No luck.

This must be a trivial problem  and I am doing something wrong. YES must be!

IO am now beyond any comfort zone that I had.

Using Windows Update I have checked the current and past status of . NET
Framework

This looks  there is the original 4 install followed by two to three
updates, can check and give you chapter & verse, followed by 9 or 10
Security upgrades - all must be after the 3.5 which would have been there.

Any other information can be provided as required.

My next action is to ! check the >NET framework status of the Laptop and
then try and install to that.

Another clue me thinks.

I would be grateful for any other useful suggested actions .

It does not help but I know a number of folk who run Microsoft Maths but all
on older OS systems.

Not sure whether they have, or need ,NET Framework!

Any suggestions gratefully received, I am off to the Laptp now!

 

Thanks

Brian
