Q: 

iis installation on vista home basic

hi

i am a beginner at asp, i have made a website using asp.net and C#, now i want it to run it on intranet, my laptop being server. But i can't even run the default page that is present after iis installation. I have vista home basic operating system installed on my laptop with iis 7.0.

The error i get is HTTP 404.4 page not found.

The error persists even when i try opening html pages

Please help

A: 

ensure that your website is pointed at the correct folder. I'd also check that the correct user accounts are able to access the files.

A: 

According to this thread is not posible to install IIS in Home Basic.
You will need at least Home Premium to run it.

Or "upgrade" to XP :)

why is it that whenever Vista is mentioned that some snide or sarcastic remark about "downgrading" to XP is required?

When vendors offer a paid option to downgrade the operating systems, you know something is wrong with the current one. (I like and use Vista, but I acknowledge that it was flawed for most people)
