VB.Net wont install

[Harry Hudini]

I'm trying to install VS .Net, particularly the VB elements, but no matter
what i select, i get an error at the end of the process simply saying that
an error occurred.

The installlog.txt file contains these lines;

if you are talking about the prerequisites that went wrong here 2, but if
you are sure everithing is installed you can install visual studio without
them, don't remember w the command was but have a look on the web.

Maybe you'll also get help at microsoft.public.vsnet.setup

Sorry, im not sure i understand

VB wont let you install until you install the required components, which i
have done. Its at the end of stage 2 that i get the error (after the main
install of files)

Do you mean that i can run the install so that it wont require the
components in stage one to be installed ?

 

[EricJ]

yes with me the setup didn't accept that the prerequisites where installed
and i couldn't go further but this seems to be something else

Do you mean that i can run the install so that it wont require the
components in stage one to be installed ?

yes you can use a command to install vs whithout checking for the
prerequisites.
