Installing the .NET framework manually
You can download an installation routine from the Microsoft web site. This seems a simpler method to us. Microsoft is notorious for regularly re-arranging its sites, so we cannot reliably link directly to the download page. Instead, we suggest you follow this procedure to download the .NET framework to your PC:
- Go to the Microsoft site at www.microsoft.com
- Click the 'Downloads' link (currently under the "Product Resources" heading at the left hand side of the page)
- Enter ".NET framework redistributable" in the 'search' box and click 'Go' to start your search
You should see the .NET framework version 1.1 redistributable package towards the top of the list.
- Click the link to start the download process.
- Once you have downloaded the install program, run it to install the .NET framework on your PC. Note that you will need to have Administrator access to your PC if you are running Windows XP, Windows 2000 or Windows NT.
