I have 1.1 of the framework with SP1 already installed on my machine and am
trying to install the .Net Framework Service Pack 2. I get this message:

"The upgrade patch cannot be installed by the Windows Installer service
because the program to be upgraded may be missing, or the upgrade patch may
update a different version of the program. Verify that the program to be
upgraded exists on your computer and that you have the correct upgrade
patch."

Tried it on another machine with just 1.1 on it with no service packs and
still get the same message, I also have the compact framework SP1
installed.

Bit lost in all the versions and service packs at the moment

Problem installing .Net Framework SP2 by Donald

Hi Derek,

The SPs (both 1 & 2) are for .NET Framework 1.0 only. If
you only have .NET Framework 1.1 installed on your
machine, you needn't install the SPs.

HTH,
