.NET 2.0, 3.0 and 3.5 are all based on version 2.0 of the CLR. The version you see is the CLR version, not the Framework version, so everything is fine.

ASP.NET has a different version number for the underlying .Net framework.



ASP.NET 2.0.50727.0 can work with .Net 3.5 - your error message says the correct version.
