in that case, john, it is time to uninstall _all_ of it and start over... this 
time, let's do it simply...

the WAMP stuff seems like it might be an ok place to start... i am aware, 
though, that if it is based on LAMP, that it is mainly targetted toward local 
network or localhost use only and should not be pointed at the internet unless 
the security has been tightened up more...

anyway, get WAMP installed and working... that means that their initial test 
pages work and are viewable... as i recall, the default apache install has all 
of its documentation installed and accessible and that is a good test if it is...

once you have that done, then go into your apache document root and create 
yourself a directory to hold phpgedview... then unzip phpgedview into that 
directory...

ie: apache is in c:\program files\apache
     document root is c:\my documents\wwwroot
     make c:\my documents\wwwroot\geneology
     unzip phpgedview into geneology
     edit config.php as needed
     point your browser to http:\\localhost\geneology\ and you should be in

no virtual directories or virtual servers or any of that slightly more advanced 
stuff... you need to get the basics down and working first... than you can move 
on to some of the other stuff...
