The answers have been posted many many times in this newsgroup - a simple
search on 917283 would have found the many threads devoted to this topic.
The following is a revised version of an earlier post by TKang:

Note:
a. Some ATI VGA users may need to disable/exit the Catalyst Control Center
(which uses .NET) before updating the framework.
b. Users of Windows Live OneCare must disable that application before
removing or updating the Framework.

1: Turn automatic updates off.

2: Download .NET 2.0 (for 32-Bit) at this link:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

OR

2a: Download .NET 2.0 (for 64-Bit) at this link:
http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...displaylang=en

3: Use control panel Add/Remove Programs to uninstall Microsoft .NET
Framework, Version 2.0 and reboot. Do not touch .NET Framework 1.1.

3a: see note below at step 7.

4: Install Microsoft .NET Framework, Version 2.0 (for 32-bit: dotnetfx.exe
3/22/2006) or (for 64-bit: NetFx64.exe 3/30/2006) and reboot.

5: Then run MS Update (and install KB917283) then reboot.

6: Turn automatic updates on (assuming that is your preference).

7. If this procedure failed to allow update 917283 to work, then repeat the
procedure, adding the following at step 3a:
Download http://astebner.sts.winisp.net/Tools...eanup_tool.zip and
unzip it. Run the enclosed application, and select to clean up .NET
Framework 2.0. Now continue above from step 4.

What we have ran into (alot) in a number of gaming communities is
the .NET 2.0 was not the MS FEB06 release on their PC's. I have seen issues
(corrupted .NET) from reinstalling/overwriting .NET framework; including VGA
Card install discs and a couple outdated download sites (not MS). For
whatever reason... MS seemingly has not caught it through automatic updates.
To correct the situation is to completely uninstall v2.0 and reinstall it.
KB917283 apparently needs to the FEB06 .NET update to install.

I might add that the Windows Live Safety Center "is a new, free service
designed to help ensure the health of your PC."
http://safety.live.com/site/en-us/default.htm
You might run the Free Full Service Scan to clean up the registry before
reinstalling .NET 2.0...

Please don't. That site permanently damages your registry so that no Office
updates can be installed.

Please clarify exactly what you mean by "cannot install Net 2.0". What
error numbers or messages are given? Other symptoms?

What is the relevance of 312500 to all this? 312500 does not exist.

with your permission, would it be possible for me to send the screen shots to
