There doesn’t appear to be anything at that domain. Have you spoken to your hosts about this?
If I upload a website from EZgenerator or Serif Web Apps it shows fine so I know the ftp/hosting is ok.

Try re-uploading all files & folder from a fresh download of WordPress. Make sure that you delete the old copies of files & folder before uploading the new ones.
Done that twice already as my first thoughts were either a corrupt download or corrupted from unzipping…. 🙁
Just contacted my web host to make sure PHP is working ok on my server.
Fingers crossed it’s that 🙂
Seems streamline.net hosting plans support php/mysql.
Do you have the mysql database ready?. During the installation process you have to enter database name, user and password.
Delete the wp-config.php file and just go to your website using browser. The installation will auto run and create a wp-config.php file for you with the information entered during installation.
Hope this will help.
Just gave that a go and still 404 error, and that’s on any page I visit. Looks more and more like a PHP problem on the hosting end me thinks?
By the way, thank you very much for each of your time to help me out with this. 🙂
Streamline host web site says
“1 Click Installer
The one click installer (Linux only) enables you to install applications such as WordPress all with one click.”
If you are on a linux hosting you can use it from your control panel.
No I’m on a windows server as luck wouldn’t have it lol
And out of interest the

works fine, I’m sure it’s hosting PHP related now.
Yup all ok now, PHP was not setup properly by my hosting company..
Thanks again everyone.
