For development purposes, there's no reason why you can't have both CFMX and CF 5 installed and running, even if you want them to both use IIS. If you think the load that one is getting may be affecting the other, you can just turn either off. Neither one will directly interfere with the other, as long as your web server is configured properly. However, if you're running Windows XP Professional, I think it'll only let you have one virtual server, in which case you'd want to set up only one or the other to run through IIS. You don't have to uninstall either one to make this happen, though. > But installing this second time after removing CFMX didn't > work. THAT's my problem.

During the install, rather than selecting IIS as your web server, select "standalone" and configure the web server connector after the install has completed successfully.
