Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 failed

When I use Windows update, I get an error:

Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1 Service Pack 1 failed to install.

Any clues?
I have tried a few times.
 
Did you have the original .NET Framework installed? If not, the SP will not work.

 
Not true.....I installed the .Net SP1 over the .Net version 1.1 (second version of .net). This was on an XP pro with SP2 installed.
 

I do have .NET framework installed, and I assume it's 1.0

The 1.1 update that MS update wants to install is the one that fails.

I'm having the same problem here. XP Home.

Does anybody know what could be the problem?

Thanks.

ETA: I just tried again and I get this error...

I click OK and it tells me it failed.
 
The .Net upgrade puts a log (or two) in your temp directory -
<bootvol>\Documents and Settings\<user>\Local Settings\Temp.

Reading the setup log may help narrow your problem.

Nothing in that directory.
 
I reinstalled .net V1.1 and the critical upgrade 3 days ago, so the logs are still on my pc.

As far as I can tell, the .net V1.1 install and critical upgrade created "netfx.log", "dotNetFx.log", "ASPNETsetup.log", "nerfxsl.log" and "netfxupdate.log."

You could poke around for these, though if the install or update never got as far as starting a log, I guess you won't find anything.

Good luck!
