MagicAndre1981 Posted December 9, 2006 Share Posted December 9, 2006 you have to leave .NET 1.0 and 1.1 installed. You can't use MCE only with .NET 2.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zedox Posted December 11, 2006 Author Share Posted December 11, 2006 I do have net 1.0 and 1.1 installed... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

zedox Posted December 12, 2006 Author Share Posted December 12, 2006 Are you guys having a laugh?Would you like me to list every hotfix and microsoft product installed?I have net 1.0 + sp3I have 1.1 + sp1I have installed all of the MCE updates,I then install Net2.0, when I go to run MCE it comes up with an error, but restarting it fixes this...If I didnt have .NET 1.0 SP3 or .NET 1.1 SP1 I would have said... It doesnt work at all... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zedox Posted December 20, 2006 Author Share Posted December 20, 2006 There are processes set to run after a reboot by the hotfix 900325Need to manually run these and you can use MCE without restarting...I can post the commands to be entered into the run box if needed...
