I think you mean IIS. IIS is not a sepprate download and will only run on Win2k, Win XP Pro, Win Sever 2003. If you have one of these OS's then you can install it from add and remove windows components in the control panel. If you don't have one of these OS's then I'm afraid you are out of luck. If you do have Win XP Pro on your system you will need to get hold of the installation disk to install it. I'm afarid though it is not available with the home edition of XP, although if you do a search on google there are a couple of registry hacks to force it to install on the home edition, but you will still need the disk. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

It won't, your only chance with the home edition is to try a find the registry hack and get a copy of the XP disk. ------------- https://www.webwiz.net/web-wiz-forums/forum-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - Web Wiz Forums Hosting https://www.webwiz.net/web-hosting/windows-web-hosting.htm" rel="nofollow - ASP.NET Web Hosting |

Microsoft didnt put that in home edition on purpose. It was meant for a personal computer, not a webserver. ------------- http://www.iportalx.net" rel="nofollow">

Very true, but it still sucks just a teensy weensy little bit. I mean, Win 98 was never meant to be a web server either but it had PWS. There must be a fair few people in the same position, i.e., wanting a personal computer but also wanting to work with asp. Another fantastic example of Micros**t deciding it knows best about what you ought to be allowed to do with the computer you shelled out your hard-earned for, perchance?  ------------- http://www.pedalcars.info/ - www.pedalcars.info The most fun on four wheels

No, its called Microsoft being an intelligent company, only placing what is required into relevant editions of a product, and users not checking what is in a product before buying. ------------- There have been many, many posts made throughout the world... This was one of them. |

Well, I certainly can't argue with the last bit - yes if you want IIS you should check you're buying it! That said, I don't want to run a web server but I do want to build an ASP site on my home PC. Therefore, I "require" a home edition of a PC O/S and also "require" some way of emulating a web server. So it *is* MS deciding they know best! As for the "only placing what is required into relevant editions of a product", that raises something of a wry grin, given the vast amounts of crep that gets stuffed into Micros**t products like Windows, Office, et al, that demand ever-bigger hard drives and ever-more memory for no obvious benefit. Just think about the dozens of Office "features" that the vast majority of users will never use - if they even discover they exist!  ------------- http://www.pedalcars.info/ - www.pedalcars.info The most fun on four wheels

Of course Microsoft have the right to decide what features they believe most users will utilise - ITS THEIR PRODUCT! You don't have to buy it. ------------- There have been many, many posts made throughout the world... This was one of them. |
