Thanks Jeff,
Actually I have read this webpage too, but I didn't
install any Crystal Report..

May cause of some other driver but not yet discovered the
source of error.

Coe Red/Nimda infection, no NIC active, several other things can cause
this. Post the full event log error, inclouding source and error code
as well as the event ID. Google the groups for the past responses to
this.

I also have a similar problem in WindowsXP pro/IIS.
I also realised that I CAN run asp only in c:\Inetpub\wwwroot.
However, I CANNOT run asp in a virtual directory. (e.g. c:\WebProg -->
virtual directory). When I create the Virtual Directory, I did specify that
it can execute ASP, etc.

1 year ago, I have similar a similar problem, in Windows 2000/IIS. I tried
most of the solutions in Microsoft knowlege base etc. It still did not work.
In the end, I had to re-format the hardisk & re-install Windows XP. Give Up.

I am looking at the knowledge article but with little hope.

I am thinking of doing a System Restore. Can anyone tell me, if I restore
to a check point, will those those program installed After the check point
(e.g. Lotus Notes) will still be able to work? Or, the program (e.g. Lotus
Notes) will disapper.

I am very unhappy with IIS !!! It is a terrible piece of software.

Thanks.
