    You are running DNN in .Net 2.0 which is not compatible. Go to IIS, right click the virtual directory you installed DNN under and click Properties. Click the ASP.NET tab and choose 1.1 from the  drop down menu. This will ensure that the DNN application runs on 1.1. If you don't have .Net 1.1 then you will need to install it.

    NBC You were right. Embarrassed [:$] It was stupid of me to think dnn would work with .net v2.0 beto so now i tried the following to solve it. But now I ran into problems again.

    Now i uninstalled .Net v2.0 beta and installed .Net v1.1.
    Dropped the database
    Created a new database (with the same name as the first one)
    Delete virtual directory'dotnetnuke' in iis
    Delete c:\dotnetnuke
    Unzipped DotNetNuke_3.1.0_Install.zip to c:\dotnetnuke
    Created a new virtual directory in iis named 'dotnetnuke' and adjusted the permissions
    adjusted the web.config
    ran the installationprocess again with http://localhost/dotnetnuke which resulted in the folowing screen:
