Cannot install Exchange 2010 on Win Server 2k8R2

I am working in a Hyper-V lab trying to install Exchange 2010 on a Windows Server 2008 R2 server. When the installer gets to the Readiness Checks it keeps failing on the Client Access Role prerequisites, and Mailbox Role prerequisites with the following 2 errors:
Unable to read data from the Metabase. Ensure that Microsoft Internet Information Services is installed.
Unable to access the 'Default Web Site' on this computer.

I have checked in Server Manager and IIS is definitely installed.
I opened the IIS Manager, and from there I *can* browse to the Default Web site.

For the 1st message, there is a link to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997645.aspx, but that site doesn't contain any useful information for Exchange 2010.
For the 2nd message, there is a link to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/aa997698.aspx, but I tried that and still get the same error.

Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks
James.
