Error 1935 When installing Visual Studio .NET

[chaboyd77]

Hi,
This problem has wasted the last two days of my life and making me go crazy......maybe someone here can help!!! I've tried all the solutions I've been able to find on the web.

I'm trying to install Visual Studio .NET Pro 2003 on my Windows XP computer and each time.. it stops with a 1935 error (on what seems like a registry key write of - Webrowser package). The specific error it gives is:

[10/30/04,19:00:01] Visual Studio .NET Professional 2003 - English: [2] ERROR: Error 1935.An error occured during the installation of assembly component {8C096959-853C-4637-BC9B-E3C610B1A71F}. HRESULT: -2146234299.

From another error log:
[10/30/04,19:00:01] vs70uimgr: DisplayMessage: Error 1935.An error occured during the installation of assembly component {8C096959-853C-4637-BC9B-E3C610B1A71F}. HRESULT: -2146234299.

This is on XP Pro with no service packs and no other programs installed. Note that the prerequisites install fine (.net Framwork 1.1 and the other prerequisites don't have any problems) I've tried everything I can think of including:

1. DId a clean boot (using msconfig), and only enabled RPC and WIndows INstaller service... still get same error. I also did this from the local administrators account.
I had NO other programs running......


2. I then reformated the hardrive and tried it with SP1 and reformatted and tried it with service pack 2.

3. I've also tried with a few other settings (like renaming mscoree.dll), but I've done so many I can't remember everyone. Must have reformatted 5 times at least.

PLease tell me there is a known solution to this???
I'm getting ready to give up on .NET and go back to 6.0.

Thanks,
David

Maybe it is too late for this reply, but just for information of anyone who come across this page.

i have the simliar problem which the installation hangs at the step where it says writing registry key and value of WebBrowser Package.

After trying for few days, and finally I noticed that the last line of the log (VSMsilog) have this:
MSI (s) (14:70) [22:05:10:250]: Executing op: CustomActionSchedule(Action=CA_CONFIIS4_Install.3643236F_FC70_11D3_A536_0090278A1BB8,ActionType=3154,Source=C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Crystal Reports\confiis4.exe,Target="CrystalReportWebFormViewer2" "C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio .NET 2003\Crystal Reports\Viewers\" /S,)

and it make me suspects it is realted to IIS problem. And later I go and check with my IIS it actually not started properly.

so what I do is to run the iisrest.exe at command line before the installation, and end up with a smooth installation.

here are the steps I take:
1. boot up the machine

2. disable firewall

3. disable antivirus

4. reset the IIS make sure it is running.
iisreset.exe

5. start installation

I had a similar problem. When I read the installation log, I can see that the problem was in my company name (which is entered while Windows installation). My company name was like this: ZAO "Arcada-Invest" and VS installation program assumes ZAO " as company name and Arcada-Invest" as an argument to some command line utility. When I changed my company name to Arcada, installation proceed with no errors.
