The installation failed when I entered the SQL database owner name and password saying that the username already exists. So I changed the username and password and it went past that and says it did a install and would now do the internet install. At which point IE opened and gave 'page cannot be found'.
The new username and password were entered into the web.config but are not part of the SQL database. Also in the web.config, the Express SQL is setup and not SQL 2005 even though your install found the remote server and database name correctly.
Plus with the Express SQL, there is no database instance name which was my error over and over with the manual setup. I'm back to where I've been the past two frustrating weeks.

I am not sure about the page cannot be found error, others have reported it also.
I think it is an IIS problem on your setup, just not sure what.
Does IIS work in general (does it show http://localhost/DotnetNuke/403-3.htm for example)?
What happens if you try http://localhost/DotNetNuke/default.aspx directly ?
About the Sql Express setting in web.config, this is only a comment (because I cannot uncomment the SQL 2000 connection string and use that I simply change the uncommented connection string (which happens to be the SQL Express connection string sample)).
Not sure what you mean with the database instance name.
Would it be possible to send me the setup logfile (high level) ?
