Hi Hyperfreak24,

1. Did you run setup_xampp.bat script after installing xampp?

2. Once you ran the script, did you try visiting http://localhost/ to
make sure a page comes up?

3. Then did you put the cake folder tree (app, webroot, cake) etc into
the root folder of your installation?

4. Did you open config/database.php and try entering your db name,
username, password?
Typically for xampp installation username is 'root' and password is
blank (empty string, ie '')

5. But, before that did you create an empty database in mysql using
phpmyadmin (that also gets installed with xampp)?

You might also need to enable mod_rewrite in apache config of your
xampp installation (it might not be enabled by default).

Hope this helps!

Thanks,
Mandy.
