The page cannot be displayed

I am running Windows 2000 Server. I inherited this computer.

I had Apache installed, and it would not let me use ASP tags such as <
% and %>. I took Apache off, for a number of reasons. Now I still
can't run a simple "Hello World" page in INETPUB or WWWROOT of my
computer. I get "The page cannot be displayed". I am going to guess
that Apache did something to my IIS or that I need to reinstall it. I
have restarted it through administrative tools/services, and shut down/
restarted, but to no avail. Help!

Can you turn off IE's "Show Friendly HTTP Errors" option and report
the actual error? It is the first step to determine what is going awry
and how to fix it.

Then, consider following steps in the following blog entry:
