Hi there.

I know this sounds really thick but I'm getting an http 404 when trying to access localhost. Can anyone put me out of my misery please? By the way I'm using XP Home and Explorer 8

Cheers Martin

make sure you have started wamp. The wamp tray icon should be white. If its white/red it means WAMP is not running at all or if its white/yellow it means there is a problem.

Do note there some programs with can intefere with WAMP, such as Skype, IIS etc.

Open Skype, go to Tools->Options->Advanced->Connection and uncheck the box "Use 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections". Restart Skype, restart WAMP. Now you will be able to use both programs at the same time w/o problems.
