 Towards the end of the installation process, one dialog pops up where you have to address the issue or the "next" button will be deactivated. On this process, you will either have a "failed" button, a "warning" button, or a "pass"/ "Not applicable" button. Once you resolve the issue you rerun to validate and the installation process is complete.

The problem with mine says something like, "your machine has older version of windows visual studio and is not compatiable.......... only made for ENUs.............something like that (I could not remember)". Upon googling some gurus suggested installing SP 1. ISO. However, it didn't work. What shall I do to resolve the issue. This is what programs I have on my system now.
