System Requirements for VB.NET

Hello Experts,
A friend of mine is trying to install VB.NET on WinXP 2002 SP1 but the
installation wizard is asking for WindowsNT based system. What are the
system requirements for VB.NET? Can't it be installed on a WinXP computer?

Thank you,

XP Professional, not XP Home.

No, it can be installed on a WinXP computer - it should be possible.

No, XP Home is sufficient (unless you want to use asp.net).

Hi Armin,

I did wish Nak was still in this newsgroup, with this answer we should have
had a thread till the bottom.

He uses XP Home edition and did alway tell a lot when someone told that
things with that did not work.

Youre right. I knew there was something about it that wasnt compatible, I just didnt reallize
that it was just that part.
