How To Connect my wampserver to my browser

Hi Bob ,

It is caused by the port 80 being open. In IE if it shows you a HTTP 404 not found it means the port 80 is closed or used by an other application.

What you have to do is to make sure that your port 80 is not in use by clicking left mouse button on wamp server then Apache test port 80. If it is in use, make sure that no application in your software  uses the port 80. It always is Skype that uses this port so what you have to do is close Skype before starting.
