 * Hi
 * I am new to WordPress, new to the forum (so apologies if I have put this in the
   wrong place) and am looking to use WordPress to set up a website for the school
   I work at.
 * At the moment I just want to test wordpress so am not connecting it to a registered
   domain yet – just my local PC.
 * I used the install guide and went down the 5 minute install guide which loaded
   Web Platform Installer route to install on a test machine, an XP pro running 
   SP3
 * Seemed to download and install everything OK, Web platform starts, a browser 
   opens and I get an error – http500.0, Internal Server error.
 * Seems to be something to do with a fastCGI module, executerequest handler is 
   PHP53_via_fast_cgi and the error code is 0x80070003.
 * The URL its trying to call is where the website has been created, and its trying
   to call index.php.
 * I am using the administrator account on the computer.
 * Please can anyone tell me how to fix the installation so it doesnt crash out 
   with the http500 error so that I can then configure my site. I am running IE 
   by the way.
 * Many thanks in advance for any help
