How to reinstall COM+ in Windows XP

[Beon Yap]

Hi! support team,

Currently, I find out that I cannot run my IIS due to my COM+ is corrupted.
Is there anyways to reinstall the COM+ service? I manage to find out the
material on Windows 2000 but it seems does not work in Windows XP. Can you
please give some advice?

Best regards,
Beon Yap
