Originally, it was running Vista Ultimate x64, and with this system rebuild, it now has Vista SP1 installed, too. I currently have MS Visual Studio 2008 Professional installed with all options/features included in the installation. I am now trying to re-install RAD Studio 2007 [C++ Builder 2007]. When the installation begins, I get a notice that the "Microsoft .NET 2.0 Framework SDK (x64)" is missing and needs to be installed. When I allow the installer to try to install that component, it then informs me that the installation of the SDK failed due to a fatal error. At this point, the remainder of the RAD Studio installation cannot be performed. I have verified that the Microsoft .NET 2.0 Framework SDK (x64) shows up in the list of installed applications on my system. Any attempt at running the standalone installation kit for that component results in a message being displayed that the component is a part of the base O.S. and cannot be separately installed or removed. What do I need to do in order to get RAD Studio 2007 successfully re-installed on my system?

What do I need to do in order to get RAD Studio 2007 successfully re-installed on my system? I have BDS2007 working on a Vista Ultimate 64 bit, with no problems. I don't rememeber how I did it, because I have installed so many different applications that I am unable to rememeber all tweaks, but there is one thing that usually works: Execute the installer wirth administrator rights, so that *all* work is doen with such rights.

Best regrads, good luck zara I am logged on with Administrator rights, and I disabled UAC so that there's no concerns about whether or not any particular task is being performed in a process that has been elevated. What is at issue here is that the RAD Studio 2007 / C++ Builder 2007 installation kit is somehow incorrectly determining that the "Microsoft ..NET 2.0 Framework SDK (x64)" is not installed, and then it attempts to perform an installation of that component, which fails because the component is built into Vista and cannot be re-installed or un-installed.

I have checked on my computer, and it seems I installed .NET 2.0 FW SDK x64 the same day I installed RAD studio, so maybe the solution is to unistall it (I am allowed to do it in my PC!) and restart the process. BTW, I work with UAC enabled and have met no real problems about that, I am against disabling it as it is a nice protection measure.

Chuck - I encountered the same problem trying to install a trial ed. of RAD Studio on 32 bit Vista (see borland.public.install.delphi - 24/6/2008 johnp) RADStudio setup reported Microsoft .NET 2.0 Framework missing from my system but when I tried to install it MS stated it was already part of Vista. I enabled the windows installer msiexec.exe and (I think) ignored the "not installed" messages and the trial ed. installed OK.
