I am trying to reinstall SQL Server 2008 on Win 7 32 bit system, but on clicking Install I am getting this error below.
Microsoft.Net Framework error - Unhandled exception has occured in your application. If you click Continue, the application will ignore this error and attempt to continue. If you click Quit, the application will close immediately. An error occurred creating
the configuration section handler for userSettings/Microsoft.SqlServer.Configuration.LandingPage.Properties.Settings:Could not load file or assembly 'System, Version=4.0.0.0, Culture=neutral, PublicKey Token=b77a5c561934e089' or one of its dependencies. The
system cannot find the file specified.
On clicking on Details button:
See the end of this message for details on invoking
just-in-time (JIT) debugging instead of this dialog box.

WRN: Assembly binding logging is turned OFF.
To enable assembly bind failure logging, set the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog] (DWORD) to 1.
Note: There is some performance penalty associated with assembly bind failure logging.
To turn this feature off, remove the registry value [HKLM\Software\Microsoft\Fusion!EnableLog].

************** JIT Debugging **************
To enable just-in-time (JIT) debugging, the .config file for this
application or computer (machine.config) must have the
jitDebugging value set in the system.windows.forms section.
The application must also be compiled with debugging
enabled.
For example:
<configuration>
<system.windows.forms jitDebugging="true" />
</configuration>
When JIT debugging is enabled, any unhandled exception
will be sent to the JIT debugger registered on the computer
rather than be handled by this dialog box.
I have tried to :
delete the following sub folder (suggested in another post with similar problem):
\users\(my profile)\Local Settings\Application Data\Microsoft_Corporation\
but I cannot find Microsoft_Corporation folder under App Data.
Please Help.
