i think if VS installs JIT it cannot be uninstalled.

reformat...

Reboot your PC in SafeMode and go through the registry editor (Run > type "regedit") then search for "Visual Studio" and delete all of them and then reboot in normal mode and try to intall, i think it would work !

You have installed visual studio 2008, it is not necessary to install visual studio 2005 on the same computer.
