I believe that WinXP only allows one WebSite at a time. So, if you overwrite
port 80, then it probably works. If you delete port 80 and install on a
different port it probably works. Windows Server has no such restrictions.

There was a bug fixed tonight where the deleting was incorrectly freeing the

Except you want to look at the hex number by the "Error". In this case:
0x80070057 = E_INVALIDARG.
Can you be sure you recompiled all of your files. It is possible you have an
old table definition that is getting in and being confused.

You could create your own Custom UI set with your different sized
bitmaps using WiXUI rather than recompile the DLL.
Then you could specify it in your Product as you would the stock UI sets
