I am trying to install the IIS server from the Windows XP
Pro CD. When it gets to the copying files part of install
it says to make sure the "Windows XP Professional CD SP1"
is in the drive. It is not letting me select it from any
other location either. Does anyone know why this is
happening? (My CD Label is: X1APCCP_EN)

Download the network SP1a installer
Copy your XP CD to C:\XP (including the root, so you have a folder named
C:\XP\I386 when you're done)
Open a cmd.exe prompt and type:
<name of sp1a exe>.exe -s:C:\XP

Then point the IIS installer to c:\XP

Thanks for the help!

Where is the network SP1a installer located?

Sorry about that, it's located here:
http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/servicepacks/sp1/sp1lang.asp
It's a bit of a large file (~130 MB)
