Go to the ISAPI filter option and create a new filter pointing to the .net 
executable. On this machine (Win Server 2003) its at 
C:\WINDOWS\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v1.1.4322\aspnet_filter.dll

Restart IIS.

You MUST install IIS BEFORE .NET or you run into problems.

Try and run the following bit of C# Just save it to a web folder with an 
aspx ext.

<%@ Page Language="C#" %>
<html>
<head>
   <script runat="server">
      void Page_Load(Object sender, EventArgs e)
      {
         Button myButton = new Button();
         myButton.Text = "Button 1";
         PlaceHolder1.Controls.Add(myButton);     
      }
   </script>
<title>Using the PlaceHolder Control</title></head>
<body>
   <form runat="server">
      <h3>Using a PlaceHolder Control</h3>
      <asp:PlaceHolder id="PlaceHolder1" 
           runat="server"/>
   </form>
</body>
</html>
