ASP.Net and IIS error message

After I have installed Visual Studio I get a message in internet explorer on
every page in my site saying Service Unavailable. It also happens when I run
aspnet_config or whatever it is called. It is fixed if I reinstall IIS but
then in Visual Studio when i start a new web project it says i need to
install ASP.Net on the server. I do this with aspnet_config and it doesnt
work.
I think it may be because my computer is running Windows XP Pro 64-bit, so i
need a 64-bit version of ASP.net for IIS. If this is the case could someone
give me a link to this?

Thanks in advance.

I'm running ASP.NET 2.0 on Windows XP x64 edition without any issues.

Did you run the aspnet_regiis or open the ASP.NET panel in IIS
and set your site to use ASP.NET 2.0 ?

Note that there seem to be a bug to prevent the ASP.NET panel from being installed
but you can use the aspnet_regiis on the command prompt instead.

Also, you need to allow ASP.NET 2.0 under "Web Service Extensions".

PL,

the problem is that he installed the 32-bit version on his 64-bit box.

Depending on the hardware, that might run...or not.
Some 64-bit systems run 32-bit software. Others don't.

I am using other software that is 32-bit fine. Also where can I get ASP.NET
2.0? I am only installing it through aspnet_regiis.
Thanks.

re:

In that case, ASP.NET 32-bit should work fine, too.

re:

As mentioned before, you can download and install
the .Net Framework in x64 and IA64 versions here :

http://msdn.microsoft.com/netframework/downloads/updates/default.aspx

You will need to *uninstall* completely the 32-bit
version before you install the 64bit version.

Use Windows "Add or Remove Programs" to uninstall the 32-bit Framework.
