Hello,
I have been trying to install the .Net framework on a Win98 machine
but the installer seems to freeze during the 'Installing Components'
phase. Eventually a box appears with the message 'Installer is no
longer responding'.
I made sure that I rebooted the machine and closed all open
applications before I started the install.
I have seen posts from others with similar problems but the solution
for them was to change directory permissions or login as the
administrator. This is obviously not applicable on a Win98 machine.
I have included a copy of the dotNetFx.log file below.
Many thanks,
Paul Booth.
