Just to clarify a few things:
1) Are the ports in the serverconfig.ini and the webconfig.ini different between 2010 and 2011? I assume they must be different otherwise things wouldn't start up.
2) What API did you install PHP .NET or Java? This shouldn't affect the install or connecting from Studio, but there is a chance the two PHP instances may not play well which might affect Flexible Layouts.
3) What Web Server did you install?

It would suggest to me that something in the IIS didn't configure properly. What does your virtual directory structure look like? Is there a handler mapping for the MapGuide ISAPI agent enabled on the mapagent virtual directory? That would be the biggest stumbling block for the issues you are seeing.
Often times customers report problems with the IIS install, but we can never reproduce them.
If you have the Installing MapGuide Enterprise on Windows pdf from your 2010 CD I believe it contains a detailed breakdown of the virtual directories and the setup. It won't explain the steps 100% for IIS 7.5, but it should give you a guide. Alternately you could try a repair and if that doesn't work an uninstall/reinstall on the Web Extensions.

Silly question. You didn't install 64bit 2011 alongside 32bit 2010 did you? IIS on 64bit won't run both 32 and 64bit together. I'm not sure if you can separate them into different websites other than the default and with different app pools they will play side by side or not. Of course since you unintalled that should eliminate that issue.
I saw similar issues with an install on XP yesterday. There were some App Pool conflicts, but the user in question said they didn't manually touch anything, but as far as I know the 2010 didn't create an App Pool. The fact that you get Site Admin working means PHP is working. That got past the first issue I saw. The second was a permissions issue on the mapagent folder and the IIS_USR account.
Another possible issue is if you are installing the 32bit version possibly by mistake then the MapGuide2011 app pool will need to have 32bit support enabled under the advanced settings for things to work.

Attached is a couple of steps we used to install 2010 originally on Vista which is similar to IIS7.5 If you can confirm these are working then it's only 1 of a couple of possibilities that remain. I will chat with a developer and see if we can confirm what we tweaked yesterday to get things running on XP. Of course our problem was actually getting 2010 to run. 64bit 2011 installed fine in our case.

Attached is a screen shot showing what things should look like. There may be a conflict with the old app pool from 2010. It may have set itself on the Default Web site and this app pool would propogate down to each virtual directory. You have have to reassign the MapGuide2011AppPool on each virtual directory.

Unless the Authentication on the mapguide virtual directory is wrong (it should be Anonymous) I don't know what would cause this. Most people reinstall when this happens. The goofy part is that the Administrator login and info is in the Site repository under the server install so unless this somehow got corrupted I don't know why it would fail. The fact you are getting an authentication failure suggests you are talking to the server now. Of course if no authentication error is recorded in the Authentication.log then the problem is likely stll IIS and not MGE.
I'm tempted to suggest uninstalling and ensure everything is deleted under IIS and reboot: confirm no old AppPools, handler mappings etc are left lying around on the default web site. Re-install and see how it goes. Yeah I know one more install but the problem seems to be remnants in IIS. Of course you could uninstall IIS and add it back and try a clean install. There definitely wouldn't be anything left from the old installs.
Of course trying it on another server that hasn't had MGE 2010 installed would be a good test too.
