.net-framework

I just switched to windows 7 from Vista and a lot of programs/games don't work anymore.

The issue is that some games need a specific .NET framework version. when I try to install that it says that I should turn on/off windows features. I go to that and I find .NET framework in the list and tried both checking it and unchecking it. Both don't work and I still get the message that I need to turn on/off that thing.

Any suggestion please?

I have Windows 7 Ultimate 32-bit.
