Install several needed Dell drivers without .NET Framework version 1.1 or higher
Okay, I'll explain my situation:
I've just reinstalled a version of Windows XP on my Dell computer.
I wanted to connect my computer to the internet, but for this, I need a network driver which is downloadable from the official Dell website. (Correct me if I'm wrong anywhere in my post.)
To install several of these drivers, I need to have .NET Framework installed. Since I do not have internet access on my designated computer, I cannot download this program. So, what I did is, I downloaded it on another computer of mine and transferred it to the designated Dell computer with a USB flash drive.
I've downloaded .NET Framework version 4.0, version 3.5 and version 3.0. Here's my problem:
1. When I first opened the .NET Framework 4.0 installer on my designated Dell computer, I got this error message:
"Only part of a ReadProcessMemory or WriteProcessMemory was completed."
So, I opened the .NET Framework 3.5 installer. I got the same error message.
So, I rebooted my computer and opened the .NET Framework 3.0 installer.
2. On opening this, I saw the Command Prompt window flash once and then close. No program activates after this happens. I have no idea what to do next, can anyone help me out?
I know that I've already got .NET Framework 1.1 installed on my computer, but I need version 2.0 or higher to install the Dell drivers, right? So I'm stuck.
Thanks in advance,

You don't need the net framework to install any drivers. It sounds like you were trying to download the drivers using the Dell Download manager. The download manager has been problems and should not be used. Only download each driver needed individually.
As far as installing on a Dell there is a specific sequence that needs to be followed, (1) Install Windows (2) Install Dell Desktop System Software (3) Install Motherboard Chipset Drivers (4) Install Device Drivers including Video, Dell sound drivers, Ethernet, etc.

"You don't need the net framework to install any drivers."
Thats wrong.
The ATI Catalyst Drivers have required DOTNET 1.1 AND 2.0 and higher.
Some other vendors use DOTNET also because Java is not installed by default on windows anymore
and they needed a scripting language.
You can use the MSI installer clean up tool to remove dotnet.
Then install DOTNET 1.1
Then Install DOTNET 2.0
Then install DOTNET 3.0
Then install DOT NET 1.X,2.X,3.5 updater/patch/ :p
Then install DOT NET 1,X,2.X, 3.X sp1/patch/ :p

The stand-alone executable packages contain all the components that are required to install the .NET Framework 4 on the specified target platforms. However, these executables do not contain language packs. You can use the stand-alone language packs to install language support.

The following table lists the stand-alone redistributable packages for each profile and platform.
