I saw similar questions but any of them has not correct answer. The installation of Joomla on localhost does not proceed after step 4. Database Configuration.
WAMPSERVER version 2.4
Apache 2.4.4
PHP 5.4.12
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
