Any process involved in the assembly of the RNA polymerase complex at the promoter region of a DNA template, resulting in the subsequent synthesis of RNA from that promoter. A transcription initiation process that results in RNA synthesis by RNA polymerase II. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate or extent of RNA polymerase II transcriptional preinitiation complex assembly. The synthesis of RNA from a DNA template by RNA polymerase II (Pol II), originating at a Pol II-specific promoter. Includes transcription of messenger RNA (mRNA) and certain small nuclear RNAs (snRNAs). Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate or extent of RNA polymerase II transcriptional preinitiation complex assembly. Any process that stops, prevents or reduces the frequency, rate or extent of RNA polymerase II transcriptional preinitiation complex assembly. The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of proteins on promoter DNA to form the transcriptional preinitiation complex (PIC), the formation of which is a prerequisite for transcription. The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of proteins on promoter DNA to form the transcriptional preinitiation complex (PIC), the formation of which is a prerequisite for transcription from the RNA polymerase II promoter. The aggregation, arrangement and bonding together of proteins and DNA molecules to form a protein-DNA complex.
