  I had do exactly the same thing but in my case i was installing sql server 2005 x64 on windows server 2008 x64.

  if i remember correctly iis 7 needs lots of configuration before you can get sql server 2005 reporting services working.

  However, the article below from microsoft is brilliant. it actually works.
