Hi Paul, You can copy the image url by right clicking on it and open it in a new window. You'll see the request url constructed by OpenLayers and maybe an error message from MapServer.
I noticed that you use the "map" parameter. WMS has no such parameter so it should be part of your main url, like below. Also, if you look in the OpenLayers/Layer/WMS.js code, you'll see that this object takes 4 parameters, the 3e being the server-side "parameters" and the 4th being the OpenLayers object "options". min/maxZoomLevel are not parameters but OL options. layer1 = new OpenLayers.Layer.WMS( "OpenLayers WMS", "http://127.0.0.1/cgi-bin/mapserv.exe?map=/ms4w/apps/openlayers-2.5/data/uk2.map&";, { layers: "uk"}, { gutter: 15, minZoomLevel: 1, maxZoomLevel: 4 } ); If you still get pink tiles, copy the link in a new window to see the error.
