 * Thanks in advance for the help. I am building a brand new website for a client
   who currently uses Joomla. Their existing site is currently hosted on Cox Communications.
   I am required to create a new folder in their existing file manager to begin 
   building the new website in wordpress.
 * I have done that and then uploaded WordPress and the theme I am using. I am unable
   to complete the installation however. I go to [http://www.hcci-ks.org/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.hcci-ks.org/wp-admin/install.php)
   and get an Error 404 An error has occurred.
    The requested page cannot be found.
 * I need to get started to build this site. Any information would be incredibly
   helpful in getting this taken care of.

 * If teh domain is the joumla site and you had to create a new folder for WP, you
   will need to use [http://www.hcci-ks.org/new-folder-name/wp-admin/install.php](http://www.hcci-ks.org/new-folder-name/wp-admin/install.php)
