    I can't download Net 3.5 framework
    « on: January 21, 2010, 01:39:24 PM »
    I need to download Net 3.5 framework in order to use a software program I purchased.  I tried four times and I got an error that the download couldn't be completed.

    I have Windows XP Home Edition.  Any ideas?

    What browser?
    Did you try another browser?

      Hi Broni.  No I didn't.  Everytime I download Firefox it slows down everything on my computer and I know that is the one you recommend.  Should I try a different one?

      No browser should be slowing your system. You may have some other issues.
      Try Opera then.

          Broni I decided to download Firefox again and tried the download and got the same message "download didn't set up properly".

              I knew I should have written it down.  I'm not sure if that's the exact error message.  I'll try it again and post the exact error message.

                Patio the exact error message is:

                Microsoft.Net Framework 3.5 SP1 has encountered a problem during setup.  Set up did not complete correctly.

                Are you downloading the installer or the full package?
                Here's the full version:

                You're downloading it first, before you try to install?

                  Do you download Microsoft.Net Framework 3.5 SP1 to your computer, first, before you try to install it?
