Using XAMPP 1.6.7 I installed the community version of Magento. But there seems to be a problem. I am getting the error message 'extension file "curl" is must be loaded'. In another computer, everything seems fine.

(the other computer)
intel(R) Pentium(R) Dual CPU, E2140 @ 1.60Hz,
1.60 GHz. 504 MB of RAM
and XP professional 2002 sp2

My computer is less powerful (Inet Pentium 4 1.6 GHz. with sp2.)

Please help me, thanks.

From http://www.menyhart.net/blog/developer-stuff/enabling-curl-on-xampp/

On “xampp-win32-1.6.2-installer.exe” you will Have 4 php files to edit:

C:\xampp\apache\bin\php.ini
C:\xampp\php\php.ini
C:\xampp\php\php4\php.ini
C:\xampp\php\php4\php4.ini

Open the files one at a time With “Notepad++” Press Ctrl F And search\Find “cUrl”, You will See “;extension=php_curl.dll” all you have to do is REMOVE THE ” ; ” from all 4 files Make them:
extension=php_curl.dll And Restart The Xampp Server. Now Curl Support will be on.

Edit xampp/php/php.ini - change the line:

;extension=php_curl.dll

to

extension=php_curl.dll

(Just remove the ; before the line)

Remember to restart the server before trying to install Magento again.
