My 64-bit laptop is installed with Windows 98 second edition operating system and Windows installer 3.1 with a Disk space of 280MB(*86). 

The last time I tried installing Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 which is vital for Windows Operating systems, I got this error message.

I am unable to install .NET Framework 2.0

Problem Explained

Since you have clearly indicated that your laptop is a 64-bit system, running Windows 98 second edition, it is evident that the problem which you facing is related to the hardware-software compatibility.

 

Windows 98 is a 32-bit operating system so its expecting a 32-bit software to run on it while the Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 is 64 bit and so is your system.

 

Even the error which you are experiencing during installation indicates it clearly Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 Setup.

 

Error 25015. Failed to install assembly ‘C:WINDOWSMicrosoft.NETFrameworkv2.0.50727Microsoft.VisualBasic.Compatibility.dll’ because of system error: 0x80131107

 

Solution

 

The solution is that you install some 64 bit compatible operating system like Windows Vista or 7 and install Microsoft .NET Framework 2.0 64 bit version.

 

This should solve all your problems.
