No URL rewrite support, can I still use EZ?

I am using IIS. I installed EZ, I can go to EZ's login page but when I click login or signup, I get this:

Warning: Failed opening 'C:\Inetpub\Web Sites\lab\cms\index.php\admin\user\login\' for inclusion (include_path='.;f:\php42\includes;f:\php42\pear;C:\Inetpub\Web Sites\lab/cms/') in Unknown on line 0

I guess it is because EZ use search engine friendly URL by default, which requires URL rewrite support. But IIS does not have this feature.

Anyway to fix that? Can I disable EE's search engine friendly URL feature?

My case is tough because our lab's website is hosted in a department machine and I cannot switch to Apache because that's beyond me. Too bad.

I know that on Apache you can run it without rewrite support.

What could you try is index.php?/path (maybe IIS is confused by the indenx.php/ and trys to find it as file, not as parameter to index.php).
