Windows Authentication is not installed by default with certain versions of IIS.
In Windows 7 you need to do the following;
Control Panel >> Add Remove Programs >> Turn Windows Features on or off >> Internet Information Services >> World Wide Web Services >> Security >> Windows Authentication - if it is un-ticked then it is not installed
In Windows Server 2008 you need to do the following;
Server Manager >> Roles >> Add Role Services >> Security >> Windows Authentication will be in the list - if it says it is not installed you need to add it.

Kind Regards
