You might try recompiling .NET/Link from source using Visual Studio 2010 if you want support for the newer .Net version 3.5 and 4.0 runtimes. I have not personally tried this, so I do not know how difficult it may be. Alternatively, you can install the .Net version 3.5 runtime alongside Visual Studio 2010 and target version 2.0 per the instructions given at <http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb398197(VS.100).aspx>. Assemblies compiled in this way will then be able to be loaded by ..NET/Link as supplied with Mathematica.
