.NET framework 4.0 install fails on Windows XP professional version 2002 SP3:

I tried to run setup using "run as..." to make sure the admin rights are used ("protect my computer..." tick was deselected of course). I tried everything: installing using online/offline setup, windows update.

install goes a little and then "rolls back" and says:

---

Installation did not succeed

.NET Framework 4 has not been installed because:

Fatal error during installation.

for more information about this problem, see the log file.

the full log: http://pastebay.net/1433771

Any ideas?

EDIT1: I have found this in the log:

"BlockIf: You must install the 32-bit Windows Imaging Component (WIC) before you run Setup. Please visit the Microsoft Download Center to install WIC, and then rerun Setup...."

So I found it, and launched "wic_x86_enu.exe" - but it said:

---

WIC Setup error

Newer version of update is already on the system.

I have already installed:

.NET framewrok 2.0 SP2

.NET framewrok 3.0 SP2

.NET framewrok 3.5 SP1

but I need 4.0 .

EDIT2: another attempt and it's log. (this time better copy of log file):

(copy to notepad and save as .htm and open with internet browser).

I have tried all the solutions I could find - and nothing helped.

I have found something weird: when I formatted the hard drive and installed windows xp again - the .NET framework 4.0 installed ok, but when I plugged my 100Mbit internet cable - the operating system kind off "locked itself" and the bug returned - I could no longer install .NET framework 4.0 again. There was no reason for that to happen, for example I have windows server 2003 in local network, but I don't have active directory enabled on it or anything like that - the server just has some folders shared and thats all (all server's "features" are default). I had the second pc with the same problem - with XP on it too.

This seems like the bug of Operating System to me. I couldn't find what was causing the problem. After many days I gave up: backuped everything, formatted HDD and installed Windows 7 professional 64bit. .NET framework 4.0 installed with no problem on it.
