You can't really use a Win 7 PC to host web sites. The IIS installation on it restricts the number of active connections. You should seek further advice at http://forums.iis.net. These forums are really for ASP.NET development questions, not ones asking about web server configuration.

You only need IIS which might be turned off (by default) on your system. To enable it, follow this tutorial

You can certainly use the Win 7 version for testing and learning about web server config. www.iss.net has loads of resources to help.
