Any insights?

Unified .NET Framework Troubleshooting Guide

Use the .NET Framework setup verification tool to check for errors
If errors are found in the installed .NET Framework, then see:

What to do if other .NET Framework setup troubleshooting steps do not help
http://blogs.msdn.com/astebner/archi...11/479928.aspx

FWIW, error code 0x80070643 is just a generic error,
ERROR_INSTALL_FAILURE, with no signficance by itself other than to
indicate that an update failed to install.

It worked.

The instructions in
http://blogs.technet.com/askperf/arc...ler-issue.aspx
pointed me to procmon.exe, which noted ACCESS DENIED on the Registry for
msiexec.exe. When I set SYSTEM permission to Full in HKCR/Installer, it
didn't work. Trying again produced an ACCESS DENIED on HKCR/. When I set
HKCR/, it worked.

It's unnerving having to fool with system control bits at this level.

It's a wonder that this stuff works at all. procmon managed to produce 13
SUCCESS events, then it started battling with INVALID DEVICE REQUEST, NAME
NOT FOUND, BUFFER OVERFLOW, INVALID PARAMETER, CANNOT DELETE, and others.
Out of 68389 events, 4506 were not SUCCESS.

(After finishing the installation, a window popped up telling me an update
was available. It's the same update I just installed! Where does it end?)

Thanks very much!
