Hi,
I am brand new at DNN. I have no prior IT or Web development knowledge. I am a Graphic Designer trying to learn how to build websites using DNN.
I unfortunately do not find any of the instructions to be clear enough (or I just don't understand). I am using Windows 7 Professional. Can someone please point me in the direction of an instructional manual aimed at the absolute new at DNN that does not understand all the terminology. I have installed all the IIS stuff etc.
Is their a simpler way of doing this? The DotNet Nuke for Dummies I have seems to be outdated. Nothing makes sense to me.

Thank you.

do you have desktop access to your web server? in this case use Microsoft Platform Installer (download from www.microsoft.com/web) to install DNN and all prerequisites. besides, there are a couple of installation hints on www.mitchelsellers.com
