One more piece of advice, that may save you some frustration: after making those changes, restart your browser.

Try to work systematically: it is a 3-step process.

(1) make sure the domain you use goes to the correct ip address. If you use localhost, that should be okay. Otherwise, add the domain to your hosts file. Flush your dns cache and use ping to check.
(2) make sure iis sends the request to dnn: if you use localhost, create an application under 'Default Web Site", Say you call this application MyDnnSite. You will then be able to connect to your dnn installation with http://localhost/MyDnnSite/ Make sure your permissions are set correctly during this step.
(3) make sure DNN knows which portal to bring up: make an alias for localhost/MyDnnSite

Then browse to http://localhost/MyDnnSite.

 I've already attempted all this and it still doesn't work.

I am still trying to get this to work.

I am running Windows Server 2008 R2 Enterprise. It has SQL Server 2008 installed on it. I am running Windows Web Server 2008 R2 on a Hyper-V machine. Here is what I've done.

  1. Backed up database (from SQL Server 2000)
  2. Zipped up entire web directory
  3. Created new database with same name in SQL Server 2008 R2
  4. Restored old database into the newly created one
  5. Fixed the orphaned user issue
  6. Extracted zip into the wwwroot folder
  7. Give the folder proper permissions
  8. Created the Virtual Directory in IIS
  9. Converted VD to application
  10. Changed the web.config references to point to new server
I then went to http://localhost/dotnetnuke is just says "Hello World!"

If I go to http://localhost/dotnetnuke/default.aspx is directs me to the generic installation.

Can someone please offer some guidance? Thanks!

I think I am almost there!

Now, when I go to http://localhost/dotnetnuke I get redirected to my production server! I have localhost in my PortalAlias table. Do I need to delete all the other rows in order for this to not direct me to my production server?
