The steps are different under IIS6, sorry I thought I had read that he was using IIS7. I don't have a machine with IIS6 handy to look up the step by step instructions but from memory they would be 1. From control panel -> Add/Remove programs choose "Add Windows Components" from the left hand side of the dialog box. 2. In the next dialog box choose ASP.NET. I seem to remember that instead of automatically selecting the dependencies you get a dialog telling you about the dependencies when you try to continue the setup. 3. After finishing the wizard to add ASP.NET test the .aspx page again.

To check if ASP.NET is installed: 1. Run server manager. Under Roles see if the Web Server (IIS) role is installed. If not add the role. 2. Click on the "Web Server (IIS)" role name to see the details. Under the Role Services check that ASP.NET is listed as Installed. If not, click on Add Role Services and select ASP.NET under Application Development. The dependent services will also be selected. Click install and continue through the wizard to install ASP.NET. 3. Retest the default.aspx site to see if that fixes the problem.
