After following the guide and installing .NET 4.0 I suddenly had a “The page cannot be found”.
Then I clicked through the IIS manager and .NET 4.0 was prohibited.
after I enabled it, it started working.
I spent now almost a day just installing umbraco, configuring the database and so on. It starts working, but I don’t get warm/fuzzy about it.

Great!
Thanks
Awesome – saved me a lot of head scratching!
