WAMPSERVER version 2.4

MySQL 5.6.12
Joomla_2.5.14-Stable-Full_Package

if you edit the SQL install file (Root/installation/SQL/mysql/joomla.sql) in something like notepad++ and replace all "ENGINE=InnoDB" with "ENGINE=MyIsam" the DB type is more responsive to the Joomla install conditions.

The usual reason for this is simply that php runs out of execution time.

Check your php.ini file ( use the wampmanager menus so you edit the correct version of this )

left click wampmanager -> PHP -> php.ini

This will open notepad on the correct php.ini file, look for this directive

max_execution_time = 60

Change it to something larger like

max_execution_time = 240

Then retry your install.

Remember to set it back to 60 after the install completes
