Hi Michael,
Based on the results you are getting, I would say ASP.NET is not installed properly. I would run the aspnet_regiis.exe utility to see if everything gets fixed. The utility is located in the %windir%\Microsoft .NET\Framework\v1.0.3705 directory. If that doesn't fix it then I woiuld uninstall and reinstall the enitre Framework. (Hopefully that won't be necessary :) ).
It sounds like you have a mapping problem with IIS. If you install IIS after you installed Visual Studio, the ASP.NET mappings are lost. To correct this, you need to run the aspnet_regiis.exe utility. It will reinstall ASP.NET on your machine. The utility is located in the %windir%\Microsoft .NET\Framework\v1.0.3705 directory. Just issue the following:
aspnet_regiis -i
