Guest Paul Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Hi folks, I've just finished reading that when you install NF 2 after 1.1, it can break 1.1. If you use Media Centre and x64. And you're meant to uninstall NF 2 or something then reinstall it to fix it. I've also just noticed, this has happened on the PC I'm on now (using x32). Both 1.1 and 2 are installed. (under 1.1 in add/remove programs, its says readme, instead of a site. It points to repairRedist.htm Even tho the link under 1.1 says the 1.1 install maybe corrupt, would programs that require 1.1 still run or not?? I dont really fancy uninstalling .Net framework 2 after I've just installed it, (and reinstalling it), just because of some cockup / bad programming. Is there some kind of fix to fix it. So, 1.1 doesnt get screwed up after you install NF 2? And to save someone uninstalling and reinstalling NF 2?
Guest Ashutosh Bhawasinka Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Re: Net framework 1.1 and 2 In general nothing wrong happens. If you have installed software like visual studio 2005, you won't be able to un-install the .net framework. You can do a repair install. Also, if all the version of .net are installed, lets say 1.1, 2, 3, 3.5. All are installed. Now, when you run an application which was build with 1.1 vesion, it will be run on 1.1 only. If the version on which the application was build is available, that version of .Net is used. If that version is not installed, then the latest version of the .Net framework is used. If you are facing issues with some application which uses 1.1, you can change/create a configuration file for them. In this configuration file you can configure the application to use a different version of the .net framework. Are your really facing any issues?? -- Ashutosh Bhawasinka [discussion@ashutosh.in] MCSA - Messaging, MCTS - .Net Windows Apps
Guest Paul Posted July 1, 2008 Posted July 1, 2008 Re: Net framework 1.1 and 2 Umm no. I dont use Visual Studio 2005 I've only installed 1.1 and 2, for the ATI drivers, which require NF 2, so it works properly. I only noticed it , when I decided to slipstream 1.1 and 2 in an ISO I'm doing (I tested it in Virtual PC). Thats when I noticed, (after the ISO had installed), the 1.1 entry in add/remove programs, and on the PC I'm on now (I thought I had done something wrong, when I added the 1.1 files to the ISO (obviously I was wrong). I've only installed 1.1 and 2. Altho I have the 3 and 3.5 install files as well. But havent installed them Thanx for the info !
