Hi
I was trying to install the SQL server 2005 trial version and the only warning I got was for IIS feature requirement.
I am using MS Windows XP home edition SP2 with 1GB RAM and 2.80 GHz pentium processor.
How can I get this IIS feature on my machine with these specifications? am I forced to have a different operationg system to support the IIS? Is this problem caused by the operating system I am using or what else could have caused this?
After installing SQL server 2005 by ignoring the IIS warning I realised I could not get Reporting service feature installed.
How can I get this Reporting service ? Will I be able to get the reporting services installed if I do not change the Operating system? What should I do if I want to have reporting services components installed on my machine?
Thanks
Below is the warning message I got , I tried to follow the instruction but I could not see the IIS anywhere on my machine

·IIS Feature Requirement
Microsoft Internet Information Services (IIS) is either not installed or is disabled. IIS is required by some SQL Server features. Without IIS, some SQL Server features will not be available for installation. To install all SQL Server features, install IIS from Add or Remove Programs in Control Panel or enable the IIS service through the Control Panel if it is already installed, and then run SQL Server Setup again. For a list of features that depend on IIS, see Features Supported by Editions of SQL Server in Books Online."
