You will need to add a mapping for .xap to the mime type “application/x-silverlight-app” in your IIS mime map. See:-
http://www.adefwebserver.com/DotNetNukeHELP/Misc/Silverlight/SettingMimeType.html
IIS6 and beyond will serve up a 404 if asked to deliver a file the extension of which it can’t find a mime map for. The wild card .* to application/octet-stream is not present on default installs of IIS6 and above.
