microsoft visual studio .NET 2003 prerequisites

this troubled me a lottt...the necessary prerequisites...oopphhh

(the below information is just to let the readers who do not know abt this....)

ok lemme start..... when u try installing this u might probably get an error
"Setup has detected that another program requires the computer to reboot. You must reboot the computer before installing Visual Studio .Net Prerequisites. Once the system reboots. you need to restart setup. Click OK to reboot. Click cancel to exit setup and install later."
the weird thing is that when u do this i.e, restart...the same thing happens...

the only thing u can do is install the prerequisites which are given in the CD or DVD....
among all those the important prerequisites u need are:

Microsoft FrontPage 2000 Web Extensions Client
Setup Runtime Files
(Microsoft Internet Explorer 6 Service Pack 1)
Microsoft .NET Framework 1.1
Microsoft Visual J# .NET Redistributable Package 1.1

if all the above are installed u can proceed for installation...
now these options are available in the folder WCU ..but there are also more besides these...
so i tried installing them seperately....(make sure u follow the order) i guess...
even after this if ur facing any problems...the last option is to install all the features....given in the folder...

there are many helpful articles provided at microsoft site...
(there is lot info abt this, got to say took a lot of time to know everythin reg. this.. )

cheers..
