.NET Forum / .NET Framework / Setup / May 2004.NET install probs, error 1633
I'm trying to install the .Net framework 1.1 on Windows 2000 SP4,running an AMD Athlon 2800+. It drops out with a vague error message "cannot be installed on this platform". I checked the dotNetfx.log and came up with this [04/29/04,17:24:23] Starting Install.ex [04/29/04,17:24:23] Parsing switches from commandline: C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP000.TMP\Install.ex [04/29/04,17:24:23] SourceDir: C:\DOCUME~1\ADMINI~1\LOCALS~1\Temp\IXP000.TMP[04/29/04,17:24:23] Install starte [04/29/04,17:24:23] Checking system requirement [04/29/04,17:24:23] OS: Win 3.

Unfortunately, the installer has wrongly detected your windows version to be 3.1 and hence popped up the message ERROR_INSTALL_PLATFORM_UNSUPPORTED 1633 which means "This installation package is not supported on this platform. Contact your application vendor. You need to contact MS suppor Regard Vipul Pate Microsoft India Community Star Here's a wild-a.s guess - you've somehow enabled the application compatibility stuff for a program called install.exe. I don't know the details, but I've seen people do this before with generically named programs such as setup.exe or install.exe.

Used that as well (as a long shot) still didn't work. In the end I used a different "fix" http://www.mcse.ms/message37399.html Uncompressed dotnetfx.exe and ran netfx.msi directly. Seemed to do the trick! Thank you for your answers, anyway! > Here's a wild-a.s guess - you've somehow enabled the application > compatibility stuff for a program called install.exe.
