I have used wamp5.1.4.4 on windows XP professional with no problems! I have now brought a new computer with XP home on it. I also am now using wamp5.1.6.6 - every time I want to view my pages in php on localhost it asks me to connect to the Internet??? I originally installed wamp 1st - then I created the Internet connection could that be the problem??? or could it be XP home causing the problem??? It is getting to be a pain when viewing stuff!!!! Any help would be much appreciated!!
If you are using Internet Explorer 6.0, disable any dial-ups in Internet Explorer and manually connect to your ISP.
Goto Tools > Internet Options > Connections; change it from "Always dial my default connection" to "Never dial a connection", Click "Ok" and it should be fine.
