installation problem

[Andrea]

I have been using VS.net. But now i am unable to install VS.net to another
machine. When i try to install visual studio.net, i am getting an error
message "unable to load sitsetup.dll" . I cannot proceed installing because
of this error. The error appears as soon as I start installing the
Prerequisites CD - Sitsetup.dll is normally present on the Prerequisites CD
(antivirus and firewall are disabled).
The OS is windows XP home edition sp2 installed.

Hope someone can help me

Re: installation problem

Never heard of this. I googled the error message and got a hit from UK
about a year ago that showed that the CD wasn't readable from a different
drive than the one it was written on. Apparently, that message pertained to
a user that had burned a backup copy of the disk and was installing from
that.

If you are using a backup disk to install from, you may have more success
installing from the original CD.

HTH,
