I am trying to install with WAMP Version 1.7.0. After doing all the steps as stated by installation help its giving the error - "Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 8388608 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 98304 bytes) in C:\wamp\www\wordpress\wp-includes\registration.php on line 135" and the address bar showing "http://localhost/wordpress/wp-admin/install.php"
I am just confused that what should I do?
Increase the amount of memory available to PHP.
Usually can be done by increasing the value in php.ini.
Also, could you try the script described in Finding_server_info and report back here with the version of PHP you are using.
Thanks.
See related trac ticket:

KongTechnology.com reports success with a hack to install.php (10JAN08):
Simply add the following snippet of code:
ini_set(’memory_limit’,'32M’);
immediately after the code <?php at the top.
Save the file. No need to restart the server and try the WordPress installation again."
