I've just installed IIS on my xp pro and whenever I open IIS from my computer > manage > services and apps > IIS it gives my this error box:
"The dependancy service or group failed to start"

When i goto the IIS from admin tools it doesn't show my computer name.

i think its due to some modifications I made in the services, just don't know which one I disabled is the right one.
 
Select services from Administrative Tools -> double click -> on the dependencies tab check for the ones you have disabled.

My guess would be RPC (remote procedure calls)

Thank you. My securities account manager was disabled. Now it works :)
 
ok, new problem. Now I can see my computer name (local computer) but when I try to expand it the "default web site" is no where in sight.
