I don't see how some app I have running from RunonceEx is doing that because the only apps that are in there are Diskeeper 10 and some of the Windows XP powertoys. Also, I ran the RunonceEx before doing a clean unattended install to test it out and never got the downloading and attempt to install .NetFramework 1.1. One of the drivers in the Bâshrat the Sneaky's DriverPacks that gets installed is the ATI Radeon 600 and I know the catalyst for that requires .netframework. But I checked the inf file for that driver and I don't see where it would be requiring the download and installation of .NetFramework, though I could have missed it. I have installed that manually before and it didn't try to download and install .NetFramework 1.1, though on reboot the catalyst didn't work until I installed .NetFramework. Any other thoughts? Many thanks again. As you probably can tell, I'm new at this and so the help is greatly appreciated.
