I am trying to install/repair .Net Framework 3.0. The install goes part way 
and "crashes". The error message in the log file says, "Windows Presentation 
Foundation: [2] Error: Installation failed for component Windows Presentation 
Foundation. MSI returned error code 1612". How do I fix that so I can repair 
the install?

I was having similar problems, error message was different, but could not 
get .NET Framework 3.0 installed and/or repair installed.

Figured I'd try to see what happened when installing .NET Framework 3.5 - it 
installed just fine and it installed 3.0 at the same time. Problem solved.

I tried installing 3.5 Beta 2 and got the following error:

[08/12/07,19:51:15] Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0a: [2] Error: Installation 
failed for component Microsoft .NET Framework 3.0a. MSI returned error code 
1603
[08/12/07,19:53:19] WapUI: [2] DepCheck indicates Microsoft .NET Framework 
3.0a is not installed.

Now what?

Does the Event Viewr's Application of ==r Systenm log have any info about the failure?

Are you running the install as the Administrator on that PC?

What Machine OS and version?

I'm running on XP Pro SP2. I am the administrator.

The file "dd_dotnetfx3error.txt" says,

[08/16/07,17:50:03] Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0: [2] Error: Installation 
failed for component Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0. MSI returned error code 
1603
[08/16/07,17:50:39] setup.exe: [2] ISetupComponent::Pre/Post/Install() 
failed in ISetupManager::InternalInstallManager() with HRESULT -2147023293.

Is there any other place to look for errors?
