For the past 3 days, my PC has been telling me there are new updates for it, so I downloaded them, but they will not install. I can't remember what .net framework I have, I think it was 2? Maybe? I know I installed a beta or something, I can't remember. Some programs I used a while back needed an updated framework. Could that be the problem? It updated fine on my laptop. Here's a pic of what I'm talking about.

No, didn't work.

Yes, I have SP2

I re-download .net Framework 1.1. I post my results.

EDIT: Yeah, it worked. Just re-downloaded 1.1. Thanks for trying though.
