Thanks for replies from you and Ronx.

I will walk thru the steps Ronx provided this evening and give it another
try.

In answer to the issue you raised..first I installed XP virtual machine from
a Windows 7 user account. When I ran into the password problems with the
FP2000 extensions, I started over (by uninstalling the XPVM) and
reinstalling from a Win 7 Admin account. I did not see the XPVM asking
about priveleges. It did ask for a password. I used the same password as
the Win 7 accout. I think XPVM entered it's own user while installing
XPVM...something like "XP Virtual Mode" (not exactly sure...something like
that).

The FPSE 2000 contained in the XPVM seemed to install correctly...but as you
might have seen in this thread, they worked maybe once...meaning I could
establish one web at /localhost/... When I would close and reboot the XPVM,
I could not create another web or open the previous one because FP2003
wanted a login and password that I could not figure out and was not the ones
I had used in setting up the Win 7 or VM account. When I uninstalled and
reinstalled XPVM and tried to use either the FPSE 2002 from the FP2002 disk
or the FPSE file: fpse02_x86_ENG.exe the installation ended in the message
about a successful install. However, they server extensions did not appear
in the services list or in Administrative Tools of XPVM. Since Ron has
gotten his to work, I am obviously missing some detail. From Ron's previous
post, I repeated the procedure but "stopped" the IIS Admin in Admin
Tools/Services before installing FPSE...however, had the same results with
FPSE 2002.

I will sit down with Ron's instructions later and try to do exactly what he
did.

If there is something else that it appears that I have missed, please let me
know.

Thanks for your input and responses.

Thanks very much for your help. I think I have it working. As far as I can
figure out, my problem was the way I handled the FP2000 extensions...either
not installing them or uninstalling them prior to installing FP2002.
Thanks again!
