When trying to install the .NET Framework Beta 2 on my coworker's system
(Windows 2000), there is a "roll-back" error. The installation rolls back and
will not install. I am not a programmer. Can anyone please help?

Any messages about the error? There often is something displayed.

The error message says that Microsoft is rolling back the installation. And
then the progress bars "roll back" as though in reverse install mode, saying
the beta app could not be installed. There is no specific .DLL missing or
anything like that. Framework 1.0 and the 1.1 update is installed on the
system. But, 2.0 Beta just refuses to install.
I will get details on the exact verbiage for the error message along with
the progress bars. It is almost as if trying to install an application where
Microsoft does not have all of the components, & thus refuses to install,
like with FrontPage, where you need the disk or something like that.
Again, I will get the specifics - & write them down this time. It is hard to
capture because it says it is initializing, registering files, and then just
goes into reverse mode, with the bars rolling back and it says "rollback" or
"roll-back" in the error message -
