Net Framework 3.0 Install Fails

SP1 for both 2.0 and 3.0 fail to install. I tried repair via Add/remove -
failed for both. Suggestion for 3.0 was to download the package from MS. I
did and that repair failed as well. So, I uninstalled 3.0 and tried to
reinstall and it failed. Now I do not have 3.0 installed at all. Suggestions?

I am guessing that I may have software that needs 3.0, but won't know until
a program I need fails.

The SP1 for 2.0 worked on my XP Pro Student SP2, but not my XP Pro SP2.

SP1 for 2.0 and 3.0??????????????????

Thanks for the reply!

I have been on A Stebner's site and tried a lot of the helps there. Have
been on the sites that you suggested - no joy!

Here is something interesting from one of the log files from the failed
install (only part of):

[03/24/08,15:47:21] Setup.exe: MoveLoadProgress()

Notice the last line - "already installed" HMMM! How can I verify?

Not in Add/Remove, and didn't find ref to it via a Windows Explorer search.
