Hi I followed your steps, unfortunately my magento installation is stuck at configuration page, it doesn't go to the create admin account page. After 20 minutes it fails and give an error page.

Any ideas and help would be much appreciated.

Thanks
Jason

Thank you for this perfect guide!

IIS8 on W2012ess, working perfectly!

Just did the file.php tweak differently, because of future upgrades. File.php is a core file of magento, so I used override function. I created folder under www root folder, \app\code\local\Zend\Cache\Backend, copied file.php there and set cache_dir to completely new folder C:\webtemp with permissions for IIS user.
