Thanks for the reply.
We have all our ASP .net 1.1 projects under default application pool and all the 2.0 projects are in other other application pool.

So, this settings of different application pools was done already and still you are facing problems? If yes, than just confirm that you dont have both versions of framework used for single site.
And the last option is to go to all projects and change their app pools to new App Pool of 2.0 and change their ASP.net frame work to 2.0.5.... regardless of they are build in 1.1 or not. Try this as this also can resolve your problem.
And to just check that this error dont re-occur, try browsing both the projects (website) which were developed in 1.1 and 2.0...
We are using both version of the software for same site. So try my last option to go to all projects and change their app pools to new App Pool of 2.0 and change their ASP.net frame work to 2.0.5.... regardless of they are build in 1.1 or not. Try this as this also can resolve your problem.
And test by browsing both version of pages for couple of time...dont worry.

Okay,
now you might b having projects based on both ASP.net 1.1 and 2.0 on the same machine. To resolve this problem , go to IIS and create new Application Pool lets say by name "App Pool .Net 2.0" and after creating that, go to the website properties and change the Use of Pool to the newly created app pool ONLY for those website who are using ASP.net 2.0 (Also check the ASP.net Tab to check framework for this website).
In short ASP .net 1.1 project and 2.0 projects should have different application pools and they cannot work in same application pools. This will solve the problems.
