Ran that, all .NET thru v3.5 and SP's show green, except v1, which
shows red. What's that mean?


Which Windoze OS are you running?

Version 1.0 is not needed if you have 1.1 installed. The problem with
the framework detect program is that it doesn't show if the installed
version are working correctly. The usual indication of a problem is
an inability to install dot.nyet updates. Go thee unto Windoze Update
and see if there are any dot.nyet updates waiting to install or
failing.

Also, I'm not sure if the problem is dot.nyet or a corrupted program
trying to run or update dot.nyet. Go back to the Admin Tools - Even
Viewer and look carefully at the error messages.

For control over what's strarting, download and run Autoruns:

Hopefully, it will show something under "run once" that is failing. If
that's the case, and there's nothing else obviously wrong with
dot.nyet, you can probably abandon trying to fix dot.nyet and work on
the failing program.

This message only appears at boot, and I don't know of any programs
balking. What programs need .NET anyway?


Plenty. Any gigantic program, that starts slower than a snail,
gobbles RAM like it grew on trees, crashes regularly, produces useless
error messages, and tends to be unstable, is a good candidate. For
example, Quickbooks, Turbot Tacks, IIS 7, Visual Studio, Windoze Media
Center, anything that uses C#, some network monitoring utilties, etc.


You apparently missed this message...

Poking around, I discovered something had put the machine into
"selective start", probably a virus scan I ran. Going back to normal
start, error message went away.
