SQL Server Setup failed to obtain system account information for the ASPNET

Trying to setup MSSQL 2005 Developer version in my new machine OS Windows XP Profesional SP3, when come to installation point, error message below appear:
nder Add/Remove Programs, i have Framework 1.1, 2.0 and 3.0 installed.

What next? After surf around, here is the solution:

Steps:

1. Click on Start -> Run







2. Type in cmd and click OK






3. Command prompt screen will appear. go to"C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322" folder by using command cd C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322 and hit enter. Please refer screen below:







4. Type in aspnet_regiis -i and hit enter.





5. Screen below will be shown and dotnet user installed.


Try to install MSSQL 2005 again. It's work. Problem solved.

This command was only recognized in .NET framework versions 2 and lower. I ran it for the 3.0 and 3.5 version folders and nothing happened. Well, actually I got an error message saying that aspnet_regiis -i was not a valid/recognized command. However, after having run this command in the Version 2 & lower folders, my SQL Install proceeded without further error.
