Guest John Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 I want to install the IIS on my XP Pro machine with SP2 installed after a dwonload some months ago. When I go to the Control Panel and select the IIS from the Windows Add-ons, I am prompted to put inthe XP Pro Disk with SP2. I downloaded SP2 from the web many months ago. Why cannot I install the IIS?? Is there a link for the install for those of us who downloaded SP2 without a disk?? Thanks. John
Guest Gary S. Terhune Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Re: Installing IIS Without SP2 Disk You need to make a new installation disk with SP2 "slipstreamed" in.

Guest John Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Re: Installing IIS Without SP2 Disk Gary; Makes sense, but I am wondering since I got an OEM CD with Pro when I bought the PC is this going to make the process unworkable? I'm not always sure how the OEM disks will work on something like this? John "Gary S. Terhune" wrote: > You need to make a new installation disk with SP2 "slipstreamed" in.

Guest Jerry Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Re: Installing IIS Without SP2 Disk There is a comment in another newsgroup that the SP2 download is common for retail or OEM versions and should slipstream/integrate with no problems and the key code will be maintained. Also, do a Google search on AutoStreamer - it is a program that will help you to perform the slipstream.

Guest Gary S. Terhune Posted August 4, 2007 Posted August 4, 2007 Re: Installing IIS Without SP2 Disk The only problem arises if the installation media is a Restore disk or partition. Standard installation disks, OEM or "retail", can be used to build a slipstreamed disk. (No, I don't know what to do in the case of Restore disks or partitions.) -- Gary S.

Guest John Posted August 6, 2007 Posted August 6, 2007 Re: Installing IIS Without SP2 Disk I did the slipstream with the same results. I stumbled onto this and it finally resolved the issue. Somehow I had a corrupt file. esentutl /p Drive:\WinDir\security\database\secedit.sdb Then it worked just fine. John "Gary S.
