IIS localhost page not found in windows 7

Question

I have windows 7 64 bit ultimate OS. I need to install IIS on my laptop. From turn on/off windows features I enabled IIS by checking the checkbox in front of IIS management console. But it was not successful and then I re-enabled it by checking all the checkboxes under the web management tool. This time it was success and if I type inetmgr now I can find the window. But the problem is when I type localhost on my browser address bar page does not come(404 page not found.)

Can you please help me to solve this issue?

Solution

1. Close all applications like Skype, DropBox, GoogleDisk, TeamViewer etc.
2. Type iisreset in Windows Console and press Enter
3. Start again all applications like Skype, DropBox, GoogleDisk, TeamViewer etc.

Whis way always working for me!
