 When I try opening my windows media center I get this error message.

"Please set registry key HKLM\Software\Microsoft\.NETFramework\InstallRoot
to point to the NET Framework Install location."

I don't know how to set the registry key to point to the install location. I
was hoping someone could tell me how. I have a Dell dimension 3000, Media
Center edition, Operating System is Microsoft Windows XP Professional. Thanks
in advance.
