Hello,

I've been trying all day to fix a problem. I've installed and reinstalled XAMPP and WAMPP at separate times to achieve a web server to no avail. I did so thinking there was a problem with my installation. From the little progress I have made there seems to be a problem with my IIS. I'm using XP Pro SP3 and I have IIS 5.1. When trying to access my local host I get the message "0x800401e4 Invalid syntax..."

can someone help me and save me some time and frustration, please? Thanks
