I’ve tried to install EW3 on my XP system. It tells me I need to download a file from MS called .Net Framework 3.5 SP1. I’ve tried several times to get this file and it just will go to the server to get it for some reason. I’m thinking I’d just better stick with Dreamweaver now.
The file Microsoft .NET Framework 3.5 Service Pack 1 can be downloaded directly from the MS site.

Hi,
Thanks for your tips, but I have a weird problem!
What if I installed .Net Framework 3.5 SP1 and then I’ve got error msg: “.Net Framework 3.5 SP1′s not installed” again during the installation of Expression Studio!!!
I found this post indeed helpful. I could use the links you shared if I’ll encounter the same errors in the future. Great job!
