On a Windows platform you can try to use Kosmos ( http://wiki.openstreetmap.org/index.php/Kosmos) as a rendering engine. For this you will need to have an OSM file corresponding to the area you want to render - use osmosis to get an extract from the big planet file if necessary. After this you can install Apache with OpenLayers to display the map. The process is quite simple, and if you get stuck I can give some simple examples.
Hope this helps. Regards, Ciprian 2008/3/3 Fire Girl <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > Hi, I am struggling with a problem.
