Windows Server 2008 R2 does not allow you to install .NET Framework
3.5 SP1 directly. Instead, you have to use the Role Manager to install
the Application Server role, which will install the .NET Framework
3.51.

Administrative Tools -> Server Manager -> Roles -> Add Roles

Choose WebServer and Application Server Role

Then Visual Studio C++ 2008 setup goes OK
