MS Visual Studio 2008 Installation - Sandra Jain replied to Sam B on 12-Jan-10 05:30 AM

Uninstall any updates you have installed if any and then try. Use the following links for guidance.

Symptoms:
You are running as a limited user on Windows and when you run Visual Studio 2008's installer and approve the UAC prompt, setup either hangs during the .NET Framework 3.5 installation or the installation hangs during setup.

Workaround:
Reboot your machine.
Log in as an administrator.
Install the http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyId=333325FD-AE52-4E35-B531-508D977D32A6&displaylang=en by itself.
Reboot your machine.
Log in as your normal user.
Install Visual Studio 2008 as normal.
