As I said in a different thread there is a way to remove ALL .net stuff and start fresh, without something that requires it from 2.o forward. I will look for the specifics and post it.

MS no longer lists their 'compendium' KB for v2.0. I am still doing reverse research to maybe find it. Conflicting MS docs indicate the dot-net will NOT install UNLESS there is an app previously installed the requires dot-net. OK. Now, I have to dig thru 5 other clients to find which app requires dot-net? Way too much fun. Good news: the old client is back up and running w/o BSODs and other odd crashes. This post suspect pata hd, suspect kbd, and, confirmed sagged psu. This dot-net business may just get down-graded to "future noise."
