Hello,
I followed the instructions on the Internet about how to add IIS on a computer with
the XP Home OS. I can now see the component "Application Server", but I am unable
to click on any subcomponents to add IIS from disk. I noticed you had the same
problem. Were you able to get your Home edition to work?
Thanks in advance for your time,
Michelle
