IIS giving error when opening .asp from localhost

I am trying to install IIS (internet information service) on machines that
have Microsoft XP Service Pack2 on them. IIS seems to install
with no problems. I then try to open iisstart.asp, which is a how to for
IIS, from my Internet Explorer and I can not view the page. I am putting
http://localhost/iisstart.asp in my browsers address bar. When I do I get
an event ID 36 in my system event viewer:

Event Type: Warning
Event Source: W3SVC
Event Category: None
Event ID: 36
Date: 5/9/2005
Time: 10:50:29 AM
User: N/A
Computer: CORP156736
Description:
The server failed to load application '/LM/W3SVC/1/ROOT'. The error was
'Class not registered

I have not had problems in the past with IIS with Windows XP Service Pack 1
, and when I try with a Service Pack 1 machine now there are no problems.
Further I can install IIS on a Service Pack 1 machine and then upgrade to
Service Pack 2 and IIS continues to work after the upgrade. I have also
noticed that on the Service Pack 2 machines that will not open .asp pages
from the localhost that there are two
component services that are not installed. they are: IIS In-Process
Applications and IIS Out-Of-Process Pooled Applications. This may or may not
be a factor in my troubles. I have tried to export the missing Component
services from a working Service Pack 1 machine and install them on a Service
Pack 2 machine, but they will
not install. (I have screen shots of the errors and missing component
services if anyone wants them just email me). Any help with this issue would
be greatly appreciated.
