Cannot find NetPerfMon.WebEngine

What is this? I can't get the website started. Has Anyone ever seen this come from the web part of the configuration wizard? Any ideas? I'm enclosing the entire message below. Thanks in advance for anyone's ideas.
[Solar 7.1 installed on an XP machine (fresh load)(SP1) and SQL 2000 installed locally.]

Orion requires IIS as part of its prerequisites, which XP doesn't come with. The requirements are on the main site, and it requires Win2k or Win2k3, both of which come with IIS.

XP != Win2k3

In Orion 7.0 and older, the website is stored in this file.
In 7.1 & newer the website is stored in the database.

You need to convert the website from the file specified to the database by doing an upgrade from 7.0 to 7.1. The install looks for this file in the location specified and converts it (stores the website settings) in the database. Now you will never lose your website, as long as you have your database backed up.
