Has anyone else had .Net 2.0 Install problems?
Yes. and if so were you able to overcome them ? and how ?
Reinstalling Windows Installer 3.1. Also check that you have enough free space on your C partition. Enough in the case being at least 2 gigs.Although if you can't get it working, might I recommend HydraIDE? It doesn't have all the features of blide, but it's very lightweight and responsive.
