I am having the same basic problem. I had IIS installed successfully at one point. I installed the Visual Basic .NET Resource Kit and ASP.NET to go with my installation of VS.NET 2003 Pro. After that, I began having problems. The VB-RK support team recommended uninstalling the Kit and IIS and then reinstalling. I did the uninstalls. Now, when I try to install IIS, the installer stops at about 80% complete and just hangs there. When I go into Add/Remove components, IIS components are checked as existing. Oddly enough, though, when I go into the Computer Management console, IIS does not appear in the Services and Applications- but I do have the FrontPage 2000 Extensions Management Console.

Anyway, anyone out there know how I can get IIS installed cleanly again (without wiping the entire OS)?

BTW, I am running WinXP-Pro w/SP1 and all fixes to-date and have .NET Framework v1.1 installed.

go into Add/remove windows programs under add/remove menu thingy... uncheck IIS click next... that'll uninstall it, then just go back in and reinstall it using the same way

I've done exactly that several times now, and install still fails to complete successfully. I am going to try doing the uninstall. Then try re-installing each of the sub-components one at a time to see if I can determine wich of the components is causing the installation to fail.

I'll report my finding here if anything useful comes out of this exercise.
