I still am not able to install IIS under Ultimate. Under Programs and
Features I go to turn on IIS, and it appears to be going properly when I hit
the okay button. The progress bar moves very slowly to the right, and
pauses for a very long time (maybe 90 seconds?) at the extreme right before
I get told that Windows was unable to complete the installation and that not
all of the features may have been installed. I get an okay button, and I
discover that nothing was installed at all.

The same thing happens when I try to turn on almost any Windows feature,
such as the .Net 3.0 framework, even by itself.

Any idea what's going on?

Thanks.

Ross

Hi I have exactly the same problem on my Vista Business on my Sony SZ laptop
just bought it in 2 weeks ago. Is there any solutions or work around? I
found not only IIS but also encountered same error when I try to turn on
other windows features.

Is this caused by the new window update hot fixed? Please help!!!!!!
