New sites not working

  • I have re-setup and re-setup my database + wordpress installation attempting to get MU to work properly. No success.

    Details:
    I am running IIS 7, Windows Web Server 2008.
    The server is located on our local network. I remote desktop into it to control it.

    Here is what I am doing:
    I create my database within phpmyadmin, no problems.
    I copy wordpress onto the web root. (c:\inetpub\wwwroot)
    I load localhost/wp-admin/install.php to install wordpress.
    I login to wordpress.
    I then update my wp-config.php file with define('WP_ALLOW_MULTISITE', true); , I add this to the line right before That’s all, stop editing! Happy blogging.
    I go back to my dashboard and enable network support. I change my wp-config.php file and web.config file exactly how it wants me to.
    I re-login to wordpress.

    Here is where the problem occurs:
    I create a new site.
    I try to access the new site “localhost/newsitename”
    It shows default content but does not have any styling or images.
    I attempt to go to the newsitename dashboard “localhost/newsitename/wp-admin” and it says resource cannot be found.

    I have given the user “everyone” full permission. I have also cleared my browser cache.

    Any ideas? I feel like i’ve tried them all.

    Thanks in advance!
