Hello there,

I am trying to install VS2010-Ultimate on my machine (Windows XP Professional), but it strucks and throws error while installing .net framework 4.0

Excerpt from the error log:

 *** Blocking Components exist and must be satisfied before continuing to install ***
 Windows XP Service Pack 3 is required
 *** End of Blocking Component List ***
 Failed to pass the Warnings/Blocks checks in CVSScenario::Start()
 Error code 1603 for this component means "Fatal error during installation."
 Setup Failed on component Microsoft .NET Framework 4

Quite strange as I have already installed Windows XP SP3 before installing VS2010.

Can anyone there please guide what could be the possible cause?
