RiggsFolly, Your honor is saved! I'm looking at a green Wampserver icon in the notification area. Sequence of events: Rebooted machine. Relocked hosts file (that we had unlocked during testing) -- I am paranoid. Uninstalled wampserver. Deleted wamp folder on harddisk. Redownloaded. Reinstalled.

I'm still without a working wampserver. Is there nothing else to try? Harvey

Hmmm...is there nothing else I can try in order to get wampserver to work on my machine? I've just confirmed that the Apache service will not start. Harvey

No change - still not starting. Thanks for your patience. I'm hopeful we're close, just haven't found the right hangup. What I did: Followed your link, downloaded the installer, ran it.

RiggsFolly, Thanks for getting back to me. It looks like you missed my earler note that "Port 80 is available". Nevertheless, Iwent back and verified. As I'm composing this, I get from WampServer the msg "Your post 80 is not actually used;" I then stop my MySQL service and start the wampmysqld64 service. As expected, the port 80 is still available. I then try to
