I installed Win XP Pro including SP2 and then I added IIS.  I was installing
VS.Net 2003.  It was in the VS.Net Prerequisites phase.  It had installed MS
Front Page and looked like it had completed Setup Runtime Files (the bar was
all the way over) but it said “Current Component is still installing”.

But it never completed.  I let it sit in that condition for more than 45
minutes. I had to use Task Manager to get it out of the hang up.  I noticed
that it was not using any CPU at all.  And then I had to power off.  My PC
would not Shut Down via the START.  On this way out I did get a message that
said
“Suite Integration Toolkit Executable was non responsive program”.  Another
time I also got a message saying “an Installation for Visual Studio.Net
Baseline – English is currently suspended”

Was there something I should have done instead of terminating the install?
What do I do now to successfully clear the terminated install.  Fix the
problem and start the VS.Net install again?

FYI – I do not know if it is related.  I am just offering additional
information.
After I successfully added the IIS component to my Win XP Pro configuration,
I noticed that everytime I brought up Windows XP it would take a long time
before it added the desktop icons to the desktop.  It was not doing that
before.  Everything was operable and there were no error messages or warnings.

It did that even after my attempt to install Visual Studio.Net failed.  But
since I have Shut down and restarted many times seeing if I could clear any
problems with the failed install of VS.net.  Now the Windows desktop icons
come up without any noticeable delay.  Just as they did before I installed
IIS.

I would appreciate any advice or direction.  I did not expect a problem with
the install or expected there to be at least an error message.

thanks,
