Is your installer stating that .Net 3.5 is needed, or is it at the point
when you try running your application?

If this installer was built for a VS 2003 project, then it likely included
..Net 1.1 in the setup. It isn't clear to me whether .Net 1.1 can be
installed on Windows 7, but I don't have Windows 7 to even try. I would
suggest you try that manually by downloading the redistributable from MS and
running it.
