I am trying to study ASP. the book i am using suggests installing pws or iis. will apache let me do the same thing. What i think i will do is remove my ME partition and install 2000 pro on that. Thanks anyway guys.

is there any way of installing it on Home, i tried what loucypher, found this entry in sysoc.io=inf iis=iis.dll,OcEntry,iis.inf,hide,7 removed the hide so it reads iis=iis.dll,OcEntry,iis.inf,,7 but it didn't make any difference, same with a couple of the others I un-hid.

I already looked there. can't see it, remember i'm on home edition, not sure if it comes with it.

Hmmm, well i tried to create private folders under FAT32 but could not. so converted to NTFS for the fun of it. system went very unstable on first boot, constant hard drive access and the mouse had a mind of its own. restarted and system is fine. still unable to create protected folders unless I create them in the Documents and Settings folder/User. Not ideal as I have a very organised hard drive all though i can create short cuts to these folders in the places I want them.

If i use this convert function, I will not lose any of my data then? I want to be able to protect folders, add passwords etc, will I be able to do this if I convert?

Is there any way to change my XP partition from FAT32 - NTFS WITHOUT losing all the data and having to reisntall it all?? I have the "my documents" folder on a seperate partition, if i change XP to be on a NTFS system rather than FAT32 will i have problems reading this folder?

Does anyone know if XP Home Edition comes with IIS or PWS and if it does how do you go about installing them? Regards IXP
