I'm not sure exactly what the issue is as I have never seen this. But it must be something in your IIS or Windows configuration somewhere, because I have CF8 running on IIS and W2K3 for multiple sites with no problems. You could contact Adobe support (they offer free installation support if the problems ends up being an installation issue with CF itself) but otherwise your best bet might be to set up a test server with an identical configuration and try to install it there rather than risk failures on a live server.
