visual studio .net debugging : Unable to Debug ASP.NET

When I try and start debugging any of my //localhost web
sites, it builds it properly, but I then receive an error
message. It says "Error while trying to run project:
Unable to start debugging on web server. Catastrophic
Failure." It allows me to choose OK or HELP.

When in help, it gives me a range of things to try like:
verify anonymous access in IIS and running dotnetfx.exe.
I have tried all of these. Anyone else had this problem?
I hope I don't have to reinstall VS.NET 2k3.

Just a quick update...

I re-installed VS.NET 2003 and I get the same error
message.

Did you recently install Windows 2000 SP4? I think I
did. Hmmm... I'm wondering.

Whew!!... Thank goodness makes a good uninstall feature.
I uninstalled Win2k SP4. Works fine now. I don't have a
clue. ...
