--- Comment #5 from Tcll tcll5850@gmail.com --- thanks :) if that's the case, it may be my purge script

but this was a compilation of recommendations from various places, except for the bottom chunk.
when .NET 4.5 installs, I get prompted to install Service Pack 2/3. (I forget if it's just before, or just after the installation) ^I've only ran this script twice, and quite a while back
also, just recently checked:
tcll@tcll-AY589AAR-ABA-a4317c:~$ winetricks -q vcrun2008sp1 Executing w_do_call vcrun2008 vcrun2008 already installed, skipping
this was either installed by my script or by a program that required it (such as various VS2010 installations (which all have failed to install))
anyways thanks for any further help :)
