another installation problem

[commander_keen]

I've a pretty fresh Windows2000 installation (with SP4) and tried to install Paint.NET 2.6 today.

(I used to have v2 with .NET-framework 1.1 before in the old windows-installation and everything was fine)

it gives this error:

and this text in "details" ("the system could not find the specified file" does the non-English sentence say):

See the end of this message for details on invoking

just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

************** Exception Text **************

System.IO.FileNotFoundException: Could not load file or assembly 'PaintDotNet.SystemLayer, Version=2.6.2244.18671, Culture=neutral, PublicKeyToken=null' or one of its dependencies. Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden.

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.

To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.

Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.

To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

************** JIT Debugging **************

To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this

application or computer (machine.config) must have the

jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.

The application must also be compiled with debugging

enabled.

For example:

When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception

will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer

rather than be handled by this dialog box.

trying to continue fails of course, next click on "next" asks me if I really want to abort the setup...

While that crash dialog is up, open the following directory (via Start->Run is probably quickest):

%TEMP%\PdnSetup

What files are in there?

wth? now this was another experience of "stuck electrons" o_0

today is the third time this machine was rebooted (cut off from AC before). the two reboots before it resulted in the same error but now setup was successfull without any errors. Neither there was new software installed or uninstalled, nor any hardware changed...weird...

thx for your time.

(and this very nice piece of free software )
