Hi, I can't install VB 2008 on my friend's computer running Vista Ultimate 32-bit.

It gets to the point it has to install .NET 3.5 SP1 and acts like it's going to go on to the next step but then exits with an error.

I've downloaded the .NET 3.5 SP1 installer from Microsoft but that exit's with an error, but it gives me a chance to see the error log.

Here it is:

Code:
[10/14/08,20:11:42] Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0SP1 (CBS): [2] Error: Installation failed for component Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0SP1 (CBS). MSI returned error code -2145116147
[10/14/08,20:11:49] WapUI: [2] DepCheck indicates Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0SP1 (CBS) is not installed.
Somebody please help us!! He's going crazy over here!
