WampServer

hey everyone, So i turned on my computer this morning and started wamp but it couldnt start running so i've been looking around and aparently theres a problem with my phpmyadmin directory it's set to C:\inetpub\wwwroot\phpmyadmin\ so my guess is that it's the wrong map and that's why it wont run. Just in case someone can tell by just looking at the error code this is it: 0x80070002. thanks for the help in advance

Here is a link to more information about the error [support.microsoft.com]

i'm not using a dell computer

Whether or not you have a dell theres a fix for it. Please read the whole solution before jumping ahead of yourself.

sorry for that thanks for the help man appreciate it

problem still excists, when i go to my PHPmyAdmin it says it should be going to [localhost] instead it's redirected to C:\inetpub\wwwroot\phpmyadmin\ also my apache doesnt seem to be working when i test port 80 it says:
your port 80 is actually used by:

server: microsoft-IIS/7.0

i hope this can be solved without going through some major reinstallation.
thanks for the help newbie here to web servers and stuff

What you need to do is follow this [support.microsoft.com] and remove all the IIS services as they seem to be conflicting with your WAMP setup

IIS and Apache/Wamp are both web server and might conflict in some way, so you have to disable IIS in order for Wamp to work

Disable IIS in Vista:

Control Panel, Uninstall Programs, Turn Widows Features On or Off, uncheck Internet Information Services

Disable IIS in XP:

Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components, uncheck Internet Information Services (IIS)

Restart computer, then restart Wamp

Also, open file hosts in folder C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc and make sure you have only this line and nothing else

127.0.0.1 localhost
