I have windows 7 home and am running visual studio 2008. Everytime I try to debug an application on vs, it shows unable to connect to asp.net development server. Any clues ?
Usually the home editions of OS does not have an inbuilt IIS, But the VS 2008 comes with an in-built Development server. There is a chance that your OS might have blocked VS server port.
if you don't have framework.Net 3.5 installed - just go START button on your computer and click WINDOWS UPDATE. It will search for all the available updates including optional and it will show you Framework.Net 3.5 SP1 to install or go directly to microsoft.com
and search for framework.net 3.5 sp1. Once you install it your problem will be solved.

check for IIS server if its registered then use aspnet_regiis -i to register .NET to IIS Server
HOPE THIS WOULD HELP :)
