Have you tried to drop the database and use a new database for fresh installation?

You should use WAMP than Xmpp.

I have a related question.
I have several moodle dev instances on my Windows 8.1 (64 bit) PC (Intel i7 CPU, 16GB RAM, pretty recent PC). Whenever I'm running the older "Moodle packages for Windows" (XAMPP v1.7.4), I can feel it's MUCH faster. However, the problem is that with XAMPP v1.7.4, I can not run Moodle 2.7.x or above, it will prompt me that:
Moodle 2.7 or later requires at least PHP 5.4.4 (currently using version 5.3.5).
Please upgrade your server software or install older Moodle version.
For Moodle 2.6.x or below, XAMPP 1.7.4 runs beautifully.
Am I the only one who experience this issue? Is there something I can do to improve the performance of XAMPP 1.8.2-4 Portable running on my Windows 8.1 PC? Is there any known issue with PHP 5.4.25 (included in xampp 1.8.2-4 portable which came with Moodle 2.7.x or above Moodle packages for Windows)? Many thanks!

Wen,
The message is clear, the PHP version that came bundled with XAMPP 1.7.x is below the requirement for running Moodle 2.7 (Requires at least 5.4.4), If you want to use XAMPP, then download the latest (it will run older versions as well), else preferably download WAMP (Apache, PHP, MySQL package optimized for Windows - Available in both 32 and 64 bits).
This is if you intend to run multiple versions of Moodle on your machine, else I would have preferred downloading Windows Installer Package, as it comes with Apache, PHP and MySQL as well extensions in PHP optimized for Moodle (Like opcache), the benefit of running Windows Installer package is everything runs as an application rather than service, so they fire up and utilize system resources only when you need them, rather as in case of installing XAMPP or WAMP, they get installed as a service (Apache, PHP and MySQL) so whether you are using them or not, they still be taking your system resources in background.
