I Have Installed Visual StudioNET 2003 Many Times On Windows Server 2003 Yet This Time Around I Get A

I have installed Visual Studio.NET 2003 many times on Windows Server 2003 yet this time around I get a bizarre error. I run setup, throw in the prerequisite disk when requested, and then get this error:

"Please go to the control panel to install and configure system components."

Visual Studio.NET setup then just disappears. No log file that I can find, nothing. Server 2003 is already in the Application role so IIS and ASP.NET 1.1 are already installed. My suspicion is that some windows update patch has messed something up that prevents VS.NET 2003 from installing. If that is the case I would have thought I would find something in the knowledgebase or in google. However after spending a couple hours on this I was not able to find an install problem that manifested for other folks in this fashion.

Any thoughts?
