Hi Wes, Well it was a free copy, so no money to Microsoft on this one. I figured out the issue. There was a hidden dialog underneath the install shield dialog asking if I wanted to grant permission. Once I discovered that and granted permission it installed fine. Now I'm facing another issue. I can get to localhost:80 but when I try to access from another computer inside the router, it does not work. I wonder if port 80 is being blocked by default in Windows 7? Thanks. -William On Wed, Jan 6, 2010 at 7:52 PM, Wesley Stupar <compaps@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx> wrote: > Hi William, > > Sorry to say, I cannot help on this one.
