IIS Problem - Cant connect to localhost

[nilaavu]

I am not able to open any of my asp.net projects on my home PC (Winxp Pro and SP2).

IIS console shows nothing and when I try to connect I get the "dependency service or group failed to start " error.

I uninstalled IIS rebooted
disabled the Panda antiVirus
Reinstalled IIS Rebooted .

and it still doesnt work.

Any help appreciated

thx in advance

i guess it has somthing to do with setting up the IIS google for info regarding setting IIS in .net framework

If you install IIS after the .NET Framework on your Access Point machine, you must run a utility to update the IIS configuration with information about .NET. The utility is installed as part of the .NET Framework and can be found in %windows%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322. From this folder, run "aspnet_regiis.exe -i" to register .NET with IIS.
