Vista and VS.NET 2005 Beta 2


Recommended Posts

Anyone get Studio 2005 Beta 2 and Vista installed on the same machine? I am trying to install vs2005b2 and it ends saying it couldn't install the XML Parser...

any suggestions?

I got it to work by sharing out the DVD Drive and then connecting to it via it's UNC name eg \\machinename\dvd and then navigating to the "vs" directory and running setup.exe from there.

You can install first the XML Parser by exploring VS 2005 beta 2 DVD ---> VS ---> WCU ---> MSXML ---> msxml6

Once installed the XML Parser you can install VS 2005 normally.
