You have to move the phpBB file to the directory that was set for the localhost, not sure which one. I use IIS, you should too if your on Windows XP.

for localhost using apache its c:\program files\apache groups\apache\htdocs

And for some reason when i was installing phpbb

http://localhost/forums/install/install.php it gave me HTTP 404 Not Found

So um :S

It seems you've missplaced some files or possibly mistyped the address. I'm don't really know anything about Apache, but try putting phpbb in the main direcotry to see if you can even see the files.

you can just search for the folder htdocs on your computer this is the directory where your files have to be putted in.....unless you changed the folders name

you must have mysql, php all intact for phpbb to work.
