After installing sharepoint on our buildserver, all of our sites in IIS didn't work anymore. Apparently Sharepoint is being installed on port 80 and everything is routed to Sharepoint. I have now changed the port to 81, but my question is if it's possible to run sharepoint on port 80 together with our normal sites? And how off course? We have experience with IIS but are not experts so please, if you explain, keep that in mind. Maybe there are some links or microsoft support on how to do this?

You can do this via Central Administration by adding it as a managed path, here's the full rundown:

Ultimately you are only making things more difficult trying to run regular sites on the same url as SharePoint. Unless there is a good business reason to do so I would never do this. Why not get an extra DNS entry in and put SharePoint on its own host header? You won't even need a DNS entry if all developers put the site in their HOSTS file.
We have lots of 'fake' dns entries like dev.project.local and build.project.local etc. Works like a charm and you never get those ugly port numbers.

I'll check this because it's, like you said, the best solution.
