    Enabling Asp.net development on Vista 64

    Well as I figured it out it was not a complicated thing, but there are some specifics of course: Installing IIS By default IIS7 is included in the distribution (I use the Enterprise edition of Windows Vista), but is not installed by default. To do so open ControlPanel > Programs and Features.
