A recent Microsoft Windows Update to .Net Framework 1.1 can cause an error message on start-up of your machine. The error is caused by a failed update installation to the Framework package - the concerned Windows Udpate is KB953297. A simple search on Google for this Update will show you it's effecting a lot of users.
The fact that Microsoft hasn't released a fix for this is a pain, but thankfully you can fix this issue yourself easily.
- Firstly, download DotNetFX for .NET Framework 1.1 to a newly created folder, for example C:DotNetFX
- Install/Extract this file to the same folder.
- Now manually download the Windows Update update KB953297 and save it in the same folder, in this case, C:DotNetFX
- Simply install the downloaded update, which is named NDP1.1sp1-KB953297-X86.exe
- Install/Extract this file to the same folder.
- Now manually download the Windows Update update KB953297 and save it in the same folder, in this case, C:DotNetFX
- Simply install the downloaded update, which is named NDP1.1sp1-KB953297-X86.exe
If it comes up with an error message, use Browse and browse to the C:DotNetFX folder that you created
That's it, you're all done.
