Ok, so I downloaded the setup and it starts to run but then it has an error saying it couldn't install the prerequisites and this is the error in the log
Can anyone help? I don't want to download the other version of Windows 8 with the tools. I don't have a big enough media to install it.Code:[12C0:12A4][2011-09-17T09:15:05.816-06:00]: MUX: ExecuteError: Package (vsbsln_neu_28) failed: Error: 25541 ErrorMessage: Error 25541.Failed to open XML file C:\Windows\Microsoft.NET\Framework64\v2.0.50727\CONFIG\machine.config, system error: -2147024786

Can't install VS 2011 Developer Preview?
- 09-17-2011 #2My System Specs
Do you know if there is a standalone installer? (specially for non-msdn subscriber?) Or is there way to extract just the visual studio 11 installer from the larger .iso?
Thanks,
SD

There is a standalone installer. I don't know how to extract it from the large ISO, I just downloaded mine from BetaArchive.

Why not download it from the official MS site?

Because they don't have just the VS11 installer, I can't fit the version with VS11 on any of my DVDs or Flash Drives Originally Posted by Airbot

That installer seems to be hidden inside one of the bundles inside the iso. I tried looking for it. Strangely, MS will provide it for the msdn subscribers, even though it is a free piece of software.

Just download the ISO and mount it as a Virtual drive
Then you can extract anything you like just like a normal DVD.
Windows 8 has built in Mount ISO as a context command in Windows Explorer.
Just right click against the ISO in Windows explorer and you'll see a MOUNT option.
I can't show you the screen since I'm at work and on W7 at the moment which doesn't have this feature.
ISO Images - Mount or Unmount
(Note to Mods -- the Mount ISO in W8 is incredibly useful - especially now some iso's have > 4.7 GB so aren't suitable for normal burning DVD software. Perhaps you could make a note of this for users -- It's not a replacement for things like Daemon tools but if you just need to mount an ISO --works wonders. I'm amazed quite a lot of people don't know about this feature.
Have used on netbooks that don't even HAVE DVD drives).
Cheers
