How to install IIS and run ASP on Windows XP Professional

Note: You cannot run ASP on Windows XP Home Edition.

  1. Insert the Windows XP Professional CD-Rom into your CD-Rom Drive
  2. From your Start Button, go to Settings, and Control Panel
  3. In the Control Panel window select Add/Remove Programs
  4. In the Add/Remove window select Add/Remove Windows Components
  5. In the Wizard window check Internet Information Services, click OK
  6. An Inetpub folder will be created on your harddrive
  7. Open the Inetpub folder, and find a folder named wwwroot
  8. Create a new folder, like "MyWeb", under wwwroot.
  9. Use a text editor to write some ASP code, save the file as "test1.asp" in the "MyWeb" folder
  10. Make sure your Web server is running - its status can be checked by going into the Control Panel, then Administrative Tools, and double-click the "IIS Manager" icon
  11. Open your browser and type in "http://localhost/MyWeb/test1.asp", to view your first ASP page
