I installed it on a NT4 WKS system, it went through the windows component update and I think it installed IE6, MDAC 2.7 and the newest beta of the .Net framework. Maybe if you apply the latest SP for W2K?

>I installed .net beta 2 on a fresh system with Windows 2000 Server and can't install it because I get error messages that some of the files cannot be installed.

>>Nope, it will just ask you to remove the Beta 1 if it's installed.
