 * Hi, I installed wordpress on my computer (using Xampplite) and if I select a 
   permalink structure (3rd one) I get a 404 error.
 * However on my website (old one) I can view it successfully. Why is this so?

 * Same setup? Do you have all the [requirements](http://codex.wordpress.org/Using_Permalinks)
   on the new PC?

 * The new pc is my own PC. Running xampplite so I don’t really know the Apache 
   configurations. I have copied the .htaccess from the working site’s root folder
   to the many .htaccess I have on my localhost.
 * I think its a Apache configuration.
