Cannot find inetmgr on Windows 7 Home Basic

I have been trying for over a month now.

Can't find IIS on Windows 7 Home Basic

I have looked around and read a lot of web pages and tried every suggestion possible but haven't been able to find the IIS snap in (inetmgr) on my Windows 7 Home Basic installation.

I first checked IIS in the 'Turn Windows features on or off' and when that didn't work, I got and installed IIS Express and checked if the InetMgr option was turned on in the 'Turn Windows features on or off.' But nothing has worked.

Please help.

I need to do some ASP.NET development. Please also suggest an web server that will work on Windows 7 Home Basic and will support ASP.NET and PHP. Cassini?

You can use WebMatrix (which uses IIS Express Web Server). http://www.microsoft.com/web/webmatrix/

IIS Express runs on Windows 7 home basic and also supports both asp.net and php
