Do the following steps.
Uninstall IIS using Control Panel (Add/Remove Programs).
Now do this to restore the system to the default settings.
insert the winxp cd in the cd drive and at a dos prompt type this command

sfc /scannow

this will check for the integrity of the files and then restore the files to the original state.
now go back to control panel and reselect IIS for installation and let the installation complete.
Check if this solves the problem.
