When you installed your wamserver in your windows8 Pc & tried accessing localhost you may gone through an error like this.

Inorder to resolve this problem, please follow the following steps.

1) Click on the wampserver tray icon. From it click on Apache-> htppd.conf

Open the file in edit mode then.

Find these lines

<Directory />
    Options FollowSymLinks
    AllowOverride None
    Order deny,allow
    Deny from all
</Directory>

Change it to

<Directory />
     Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride all
    Order Deny,Allow
    Allow from all
</Directory>

2)Find another line in the same file

#   onlineoffline tag - don't remove

    Order Deny,Allow

    Deny from all

    Allow from 127.0.0.1

change it as

#   onlineoffline tag - don't remove

<Directory "c:/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin3.4.10.1/">
    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews
    AllowOverride all
        Order Deny,Allow
    Deny from all
    Allow from 127.0.0.1

</Directory>

change it to

<Directory "D:/Server/wamp/apps/phpmyadmin3.4.10.1/">    Options Indexes FollowSymLinks MultiViews    AllowOverride all        Order Deny,Allow Allow from all</Directory>
