Hi
Am trying to set up SS for the first time on a XP machine. The machine has no webserver set up so I decided to go this route http://www.silverstripe.org/installing-on-windows-now-easier-thanks-to-microsoft-web-platform-installer/.
MySQL is set up successfully. But I ran into a problem with the wpilauncher.exe.
When I run it, it says, ".NET 2.0 is a prerequisite for the Microsoft Web Platform Installer. Click OK to download and install...".
When I do that, I get a windows dialogue error box entitled, "16 bit MS-DOS Subsystem", saying, "...The NTVDM CPU has encountered an illegal instruction..." and some path info. And I can get no further.
Can you advise please?
Many thanks,
