How to fix broken IIS on Windows 7

how can I fix broken IIS on Windows 7 ?

Deinstalling it via "Windows Features" doesn't help. Apparently it doesn't uninstall IIS completely so on my subsequent attempts to install it installer hangs and I can see in Process Explorer that it keeps trying to launch svchost.exe -iis for 10 mins and then gives me error message.

Reinstalling whole Windows with all apps would take me another 3 days :/

Please help.

Old post!!. But sometimes this will help someone to save his time. This seems to be a framework error.Reinstalling framework will solve this issue. Reinstall framework by going to control panel > Turn windows features on/off > Microsoft .NET Framework xxx
