Another problem on my stupid PC...This time I tried to Install the .NET Framework 1.1 so I could install the EditVoicePack later and then a window poped up saying: "An error ocured while Windows Installer was initializing.Setup will now close."...What shall I do?

Try installing .net framework 2.0, i even think version 3.0 is near/already available

What windows version and servicepack? XP SP2 should have 1.1 installed already

Hint from the expert: that wont work... If you have the 'specific runtime' switch active it wont start and screams about having to install the runtime that has been hardcoded in the exe.

The version setting specified in the pszVersion parameter dictates which version of the CLR to load. The pszVersion parameter to CorBindToRuntimeEx is a string that identifies the subdirectory under %windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework that contains the specific version of the CLR the host wants to load. Note that the letter "v" must precede the actual version number in this string (for example, v1.0.2212).
If null is passed for this parameter, the host is delegating the decision about which version to load to the per-machine, per-user, or application-specific settings. Unless otherwise configured, the latest version of the CLR is loaded.

I have XP sp2..But when I try to install EditVoicePack it says I need .Net Framework 1.1...So I dont have it

I'm not sure the Editvoicepack installer is that "smart". It may simply be telling you that .NET 1.1 is REQUIRED in order to use the software. Is your Windows installer up to date. (It is if you've been to MS's update page lately) At any rate, .NET 1.1 is downloadable from MS's site. If all else fails, make sure it's not installed already, then download and reinstall it.
