Dot net Visual studio .NET Enterprise Architecture 2003 error
Hi there, I am Lloyd
To fix the error you are having, what you need to do is the following:
-
Close all the error messages you see. Also, close all other running programs.
-
Insert the installation CD you are using, making sure it is inserted properly. Make sure your CD and/or drive is working properly.
-
Install the product again without any interruptions.
This error you are having can be caused by either an incorrect CD inside your drive or if your windows is running V1.1 of the Windows Installer. You could also try updating your Windows to make sure you have up-to-date services in your system.

The Error 1706 maybe caused by damaged Windows system files, an incomplete installation, an incomplete uninstall, an application that was improperly deleted, or a hardware that was improperly removed. The 1706 error code is used by the vendor to identify the cause of the error.
