363 PointsI fixed it - The problem was when you run Apache and IIS on same computer they both use same port (80). This needs to be changed. I changed the port for IIS from 80 to 81 under IIS-manager->default website->Bindings / after this both servers could run simultaneously.
The other thing one does not manually need to copy/paste the file "xampplite" to "C:\xampplite" - simply click at "Install DSL v381.exe" and follow the screen (do remember to shut down IIS before installation) if that is running. And also rember to change the port IIS later in order to run both servers on the machine.
It is pitty that teamtreehouse does not tell it in there installation procedure!

Try accessing http://test1.dev/wp-login.php and let me know if you got to the WordPress login screen. If not, it means you have misconfigured something.
Hope it helps, Angelo
