Re: Is there a way to have Personal Web Server on XP- Home?

Tech-Archive recommends: Speed Up your PC by fixing your registry

Apache it not that easy to install as PWS is. Besides PWS used to come with
ealier Windows versions like 98 and 2000. So there is nothing functionally
like PWS in XP-Home?

Thanks. Perhaps there is something else which would allow running PHP or
ASP?

You can run Apache and use PHP.

Perhaps the easiest method is to use WAMP (Windows, Apache, MySql, PHP)
