What's your web host? Make sure they can support the forum.

The best free software versions are SMF and PHPBB.

I rather like webwiz forums - http://www.webwizguide.com/webwizforums/

It's ASP based - so will suit a Windows server

I've used it many times. You can use MySQL, Access or MS SQL as the database.

I've gone through so many hosting options on every single forum known to man/woman

freepowerboards.com

Great community and support. I've never been pleased with the rest because of the blatant ads. Granted...fpb does as well...but the service and the load time is incredible.
