I want to install Visual Studio 2002 on Window 7(32bit). When I try it gives me error of .NET Framework 1.0 incompatibility. I can install Framework 1.1. fine on the machine but VS 2002 needs 1.0.
Note:
I am aware of VS 2002 and Framework 1.0 are incompatible on Windows 7 / Vista but I have it installed on another similar machine and have been using it for a while. Unfortunately, I don't remember what I did to make it work then.
Any suggestions, workaround, ideas or solutions are really appreciated.
Please don't tell me it is incompatible and/or downvote because I am 100% sure I have it running on one machine.
Also I HAVE to use VS2002 due to legacy application.
With several tries I was finally was able to install VS2002 on Win7. Uninstalled all other frameworks(2.0+) which were installed as part of VS2005 / SQL Server 2008 installation. Also found something that the Windows installer might have got corrupted and did something to repair that and some other registry settings.
Main difference I can recall is that on this system I had other frameworks, MVC, etc. before installing VS2002 and that might be causing some conflict.
But again I can't say what exactly solved the problem. So may be I should have started from scratch with plain OS only.
