Hi Satish,



  Thanks for u r response.

  I am quite sure it does NOT require IIS 5.0 Because



  1) I am able to run it on a  NT workstation ( 4.0 SP6) with PWS 

installed on it.

  2) The doumentation clearly mention that .NET framework can run on WIN 

ME. The installation did not give me any error may be a pointer towards 

this.

  3) I was also able to install all the samples without any Problem



Regard 



Amit

The .NET framework is _said_ to work with Win ME (and all the other 

Winbdows 95-kernel operating systems), it just won't talk to PWS at all. 

You need a copy of IIS to run ASP.NET files. So, although you'll be able to 

write desktop apps using C# or VB.NET (and any other IL-compliant 

language), using the framework on an ME machine, you won't have the means 

to do anything with ASP.NET files. Of course, the waters have been muddied 

and obfuscated almost permanently by the previous labling of IIS on NT 4.0 

workstations as "PWS", when in fact it is merely a crippleware version of 

IIS (and the fact that PWS is also a crippled version of IIS, except that 

the degree of crippling was rather more severe - or maybe it's the Windows 

95 Kernel that's at fault; who can say with a closed-source OS :) ?).



Further obfuscation is created by the fact that, although I've been _told_ 

the .NET framework will install on a 95/98/ME operating system, I've yet to 

see an install go ahead on such a machine without dieing horribly with the 

SDK in a semi-installed state. Maybe that's just my PC.



Beta 2 will be out soon-ish, anyway.



Best of luck.

Hi Daniel,



  Thanks for the Help,there just one thing I wanted to clear.. I was able 

to install the .Net Framework on my WIN ME without any problems. The 

reason I thought that it may work with my PWS is The installation gave me 

a error when i had a instance of IE running a Page from my PWS,when i 

closed it the installation ran smoothly without any errors. The samples 

also got installed without any error. The only problem was when i ran 

an .aspx file in IE i got a save dialog box. 



  I rally couuld not check out If the .aspz files are associated with a 

dll as There is no way in a WIN ME pws where I can check it.



Thanks again for your help

Thanks for u r help
