I'm trying to install silverstripe on my local machine (windows vista with the most current version of wamp server installed and running) and I get the following error msgs in the requirements page:

PHP Configuration PHP5 installed OK (PHP version 5.2.3)
GD2 support GD2 support
XML support OK
MySQL support OK
Memory allocated (PHP config option 'memory_limit') OK (32M)
Check that the php.ini setting allow_call_time_pass_reference is on OK

File permissions
Does the webserver know where files are stored? OK (C:/wamp/www/silverstripeTutorial/)
mysite/ folder exists OK
sapphire/ folder exists OK
cms/ folder exists OK
jsparty/ folder exists OK
Is the .htaccess file writeable? Unable to detect whether I can write to files. Please ensure C:/wamp/www/silverstripeTutorial/.htaccess is writable.
Is the mysite/ folder writeable? Unable to detect whether I can write to files. Please ensure C:/wamp/www/silverstripeTutorial/mysite is writable.
Is the tutorial/ folder writeable? Unable to detect whether I can write to files. Please ensure C:/wamp/www/silverstripeTutorial/tutorial is writable.
Is the assets/ folder writeable? Unable to detect whether I can write to files. Please ensure C:/wamp/www/silverstripeTutorial/assets is writable.
Is the temporary folder writeable? OK

Webserver Configuration
Server software OK (I can't tell what webserver you are running)
mod_rewrite enabled OK

I've checked each of the folders/file and they are listed as writable. Is there a way to make silverstripe detect this? Also, the line about GD2 Support is in red, does that mean there is a problem there? and if there is, is there a way to fix it?
thanks in advance for any help,
Chris
