You should try Microsoft Web Platform Installer, which will help you set this up in IIS. This requires almost no prior experience in setting up web applications, and should work out-of-the-box.

Microsoft Web PI is definitely the easiest way configure IIS.

Alternatively, you could also try with XAMPP for Windows if you don't necessarily have to use IIS.

Error code 0x8007010b means 'The directory name is invalid'. First of all check if the folder C:\inetpub\wwwroot\Blog exists but could also be another folder referenced from your PHP.INI configuration file.
