Hvis du er inde, er det thread333-175058, men her er et uddrag:
I was having a similar problem with a scanner after upgrading to XP. But the
guys and girlies at Mustek came up with a simple but novel solution.
Basically, change the registry to fool Windows into thinking it's another
older version while installing, then change it back again.
Seemed to work fine for that and I thought it might work to let you instal
PWS under XPHome.
The page is here, but the techie stuff is below.
http://www.mustek-europe.com/html/faq/faq_english_XP.html
1. Start Regedit
2.in HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows NT\Current Version
rename the key "ProductName"
from "Microsoft Windows XP"
in "Microsoft Windows 2000"
3. install the Mustekdriver for Windows 2000 (PWS to you)
4. Undo the changes in the Registry.

Ok, now i'd just like to say that i have not tried this, and therefor am not
certain that this will work (I've got XP Pro) but i have a suspicion that
this 'Could' work (its the same prinicple that you have to use when
uninstalling that darn windows messenger!!!
Apparently IIS is on the XP Home disc, however when you go to Add/Update
components its not available so....
goto c:\windows\inf and open sysoc.inf in notepad
look for a line that says something like...
iis=iis.dll,OcEntry,iis.inf,hide,7
and remove the word 'hide', the line should now look like this....
iis=iis.dll,OcEntry,iis.inf,,7
save the file, reboot for good luck, then go to add/remove windows
components, and if i'm right IIS should be in the list, and you can install
it!!
Apparently there is no difference between the XP Home / XP Pro cd, the same
software is on both, its just a case of tweaking files and/or the registry
to get home to run like pro.
Like i said, i have no idea if this will work, it is just a guess, let me
know how you get on!

I've found this... I'd like some opinions before I implement this though.

"General HOWTO for running IIS in Windows XP Home Edition.
by Richard Sandoz - Certified Java Programmer
(1) locate and edit the file C:\WINDOWS\INF\SYSOC.INF
(2) locate a section called [Components]
(3) find a line like this:
iis=iis.dll,OcEntry,iis.inf,hide,7
(4) change it to this (the iis cab in the i386 xp home folder looks to be
nothing) iis=iis2.dll,OcEntry,iis2.inf,,7
(some sort of ms caching thing keeps sticking back iis.dll when I try to
nuke it. quickly renaming and making hidden dir called iis.dll seems to
thwart, but not worth it, so iis2.dll is good enough)
(5) I grabbed the iis.dl_ and iis.in_ from win2k advanced server cd.
I would guess similar techniques would work from W98, FP, etc. Use "EXPAND
IIS.DL_ IIS2.DLL" from a command prompt Same for IIS2.INF, place IIS2.INF in
C:\WINDOWS\INF and IIS2.DLL in C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\SETUP
(6) Now when I did "add windows programs" from the control panel's add new
programs, I had IIS options and I could even check em off. yippee - could
not check em off from my xppro cd :(((
I just went with the defaulted ones though (all i needed was iis web server)
(7) It will prompt you for files. Get em from MS XP Home CDs, Adv Server
CDs, C:\WINNT\SYSTEM32\INETSRV, C:\WINDOWS\I386, etc. (It will tell you the
file it needs, you just need to have a searcher going, probably the CDs will
have all you need)
(8) You can get to your IIS from Control Panel's Administrative Programs. I
stuck in an index.html file and reconfigure IIS to work like this.
No go :(((
I right clicked on my inetpub folder and did something with shared folders.
No go :(((
I looked at the event viewer and saw the error of my ways. Go to IIS and
goto Directory Security tab and click Edit button and Browse for the user
setup on my laptop.
(9) Yippee, hello world from
http://localhost
I won't support this solution unless paid to. I am an out of work developer
looking for work.
I bought a Toshiba 5005 laptop which came with XP home. I then bought Win XP
Professional. I have bunches of CDs from when I was a MSDN subscriber. From
a general search on the internet I found contradictions.
Microsoft says you need professional XP to do IIS period. q310090 was yanked
from their site which had the "workaround" for this.
When I tried to setup XP upgrade to pro, my laptop rebooted and hung on an
xp logo with an animated graphic. I have verified this to be the case with
others as well. Upgrading to xp pro isn't an option for this laptop."

I've used quite a few hours on this problem, and never got IIS or PWS to
work under XP Home. I DID get Apache to work with Sun ONE ASP (AKA.
Chillisoft ASP)
Here's how:
1. Download and install Apache version 1.3.26 from
http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/binaries/win32/ (Don't download version
2.x, I can't get 2.x to work with ASP)
2. Check that
http://localhost/ gives a reply stating that Apache is
working.
3. Stop the Apache webserver
4. Use regedit, and locate the key: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache
Group\Apache\1.3.26 make a new key called "1.3.22" (without the quotes) so
you get a folder called: HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Apache
Group\Apache\1.3.22. Now create a stringvalue here exactly like the one in
the key "1.3.26". (This is necessary for Chillisoft ASP to find the
directory where Apache is installed). Check that the names and values in
1.3.26 and 1.3.22 are exactly the same.
5. Download the windows version of Sun ONE ASP here:
http://www.chilisoft.com/downloads/
6. Right-click the downloaded installation file, choose properties, and tell
it to run in Windows NT compatible mode (I can't remember why I did this,
but maybe it's necessary for the installation to work)
7. Install Sun ONE ASP.
8. After this i rebooted my PC, changed the Apache configuration file to
make the ServerRoot point to my ASP pages folder, and made "default.asp"
into the page shown when a user selects a folder. I restarted Apache and
voila... My old ASP pages were working again
Mvh.
