Hi,
.Net 2 is enough to install SQL2005 Express. Refer the below link to know the installation requirements of SQL Expres.

what is the OS on this box? This error is about Windows Installer not .net Framework. Windows Server 2003 Service Pack 1 and Windows XP Service Pack 2 both include Windows Installer 3.0. For all other operating systems, you must first download and install Windows Installer 3.0.
