Fatal error: Allowed memory size of 100663296 bytes exhausted (tried to allocate 35 bytes) in C:\xampp\htdocs\local.com\admin\includes\functions\general.php on line 232

I realize this may have more to do with my WAMP than ZC, however I am running XAMPP and their forums are in German and it's all foreign to me.

The xampp I am using is 1.6.4 on W2K. When I first got the error I was trying to add a category through admin.

I googled the error and found that I should increase the memory allocation in php.ini, which I did, and then restarted the server.

First I increased the memory from 16MB to 32. Still got the error. Then from 32 to 64. Still got the error. And finally, the error I posted above, came after I set the memory to a whopping 96MB!

Obviously increasing the memory available to php is not going to cure the problem.

Anyone have any ideas, as I am about at my wits end. I have had numerous errors trying to get this test server running with ZC.

I have another test server running Xcart on NetServer WAMP and have never had any sort of trouble with it at all - runs like a charm. But this, I'm close to scrapping the whole thing.
