Hey

Trying to get the silverstripe to install. My system is Windows 7 32bit, I have downloaded latest WAMP server 2.1 server (Apache 2.2.17, PHP 5.3.5, mySQL 5.5.8).

I am getting this error always:

--- begin ---
( ! ) Fatal error: Call to undefined method com::GetRandom() in C:\wamp\www\silverstripe-v2.4.4\sapphire\security\RandomGenerator.php on line 51

I Googled for a fix and found this, but it didn't worked either: http://open.silverstripe.org/changeset/115314

WAMP is to blame. On my other machine where I don't have the latest WAMP everything worked fine.
