For .net framework you can follow the below mentioned steps. For crystal report follow the same procedure, but i dont know the correct registry entry for this. find out and proceed.. all the best!

From Tools- Setup Prerequisite, add a new one,

The condition to be checked is, search registry key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\NET Framework Setup\NDP\v2.0.50727
value -> Install =1

File to include -> path to dotnetfx20.exe
Application to run -> dotnetfx20.exe

save this.
And from redistributable, add this to your project.
