Hi i have downloaded the zip file of moodle 1.9.10 into my local system. I have extracted the zip file into a folder and i have started the installtion by double clicking on startmoodle.exe.  The installation has started, i started accessing the page at my local web bowser by typing http://localhost. It has started the installation, but when i am trying to change the url to http://mcagates it is giving an error message as

The 'Web Address' does not appear to be valid - this Moodle installation doesn't appear to be there. The value below has been reset.

Is that the name of your computer? In other words, can you use http://mcagates/install.php to access  the installer?
