I have installed XOOPS on a server in the past but I am looking at installing it on my works PC to test some options within XOOPS to use as an FAQ system for the guys I work with...

I am wondering where do I start and what will I need to have installed on my PC.. and where can I get it?

Thanks

U don't have a need for IIS since the XAMPP or WAMP contains Apache as a web server.
So if you want to run IIS in adition for other reasons pls make sure, that you don't go with 2 webservers on Port 80!

Re: PC XOOPS INSTALL

On the little button on your taskbar, u will have a link to phpmyadmin for making the database. You will probably need to create a user and password too in phpmyadmin too.
