hey lads,

ive been running vb on my comp fine for ages now. but went to install vb 3.6 and its chucking out that the php version on the comp is to low. and need to update it.

but my question is anyone know wer i can get something like phptriad that installs it all but has the latest versions of php and mysql withit? as the only version of phptriad i can find has the out of date php version and 3.6 wont run with it.

Thanks for any help
Chris

Here's one that I used to use (http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html)

Never quite cut the mustard for me though, these 'ready made' jobbies, much prefer to do the whole LAMPP server bit manually, that way you know exactly what you're getting :D

like i just did lol


that one was lagging ma comp to hell and couldnt get my head around it.


phptriad was simple to use but just cant find one with an upto date version of php/mysql :(

anyone know any others that are simple to set up and dont kill my pc.
