I am trying to install DNN on a laptop running Vista with iis 7.5 express. I am getting the following error:

Parser Error Message: It is an error to use a section registered as allowDefinition='MachineToApplication' beyond application level.  This error can be caused by a virtual directory not being configured as an application in IIS.

Source Error:

Line 95: </system.webServer> Line 96: <system.web> Line 97: <machineKey validationKey="F9D1A2D3E1D3E2F7B3D9F90FF3965ABDAC304902" decryptionKey="F9D1A2D3E1D3E2F7B3D9F90FF3965ABDAC304902F8D923AC" decryption="3DES" validation="SHA1"/> Line 98: <!-- HttpModules for Common Functionality --> Line 99: <httpModules>

Source File: C:\inetpub\wwwroot\dnnbook\web.config    Line: 97

How do I fix the problem, or what is the work around?

It seems like your error is telling about the problem itself.
Have you converted it in a application in inetmgr?

Thanks,
