Hi — since you said you have the Visual Basic 2005 Standard edition and have not tried installing yet, here is a concise, practical checklist to get you up and running. was right to ask what you tried; that info will help if something goes wrong, so please report OS and any error text if you hit trouble.

  1. Prepare: make sure you have the install media or ISO and the product key (Standard requires a key; Express is free if you want an easier route). Log in as an administrator and temporarily disable antivirus.
  2. Precheck: confirm enough disk space and that your OS has the Microsoft .NET prerequisites (Visual Studio 2005 targets .NET 2.0; on newer systems enable/install .NET 3.5 which includes 2.0).
  3. Install: copy the setup files to a local folder, run setup.exe as Administrator, choose the components you want (you can pick only Visual Basic), and follow prompts. Reboot if prompted.
  4. Post-install: install Visual Studio 2005 Service Pack 1 (SP1) and the SP1 compatibility update for Vista if you are on Vista. Run Windows Update to pick up runtime and security fixes.

If the installer fails, try running setup in compatibility mode (XP SP2), check the Windows Installer service, look at the setup log in your %TEMP% folder, and re-run after disabling AV. If problems persist, say what OS, whether the media is DVD or downloaded, and paste the exact error message so we can diagnose further.
