ASPX Does Not Work On Local IIS Server

Having problem with your software is frustrating. After installing Internet Information Service (IIS) on my Windows XP SP2 without the CD, I faced another problem: on my local IIS server, ASPX files did not work at all, even though ASP files worked. There were nothing wrong with my files because I published them on my website and they worked fine. Both local ASP.NET 1.1 and 2.0 showed error mesage. I thought it was the IIS that caused the problem.

When I used ASP.NET 1.1 the default page display:

-2147467259 (0x80004005)

When I used ASP.NET 2.0 the default page display:

Failed to execute request because the App-Domain could not be created. Error: 0x80131902 For more information, see Help and Support Center at http://go.microsoft.com/fwlink/events.asp.

If I ever tried to open any aspx file explicitly, the web browser asked me to save the file as it was a text file instead of displaying the content. When I chose to open the file using the browser, it displayed the code as if the file was a text file. I searched all over Google for a solution and found none. Neither this Velocity Reviews thread.
