This error typically occurs when you install IIS after you have asp.net installed. It is a very simple fix.

Copy and paste this into the Run Command from the Start Menu.
%windir%\Microsoft.NET\Framework\v2.0.50727\aspnet_regiis.exe -i

This will reinstall asp.net for use with IIS and in most cases fixes the error stated above.
