Drupal is not yet compatible with PHP v5.3

Read more here http://drupal.org/node/360605

I would install an older version of wamp which has PHP 5.2

Thank you for the information about why the error occurred. I just had the same problem. I found out that I did not need to install an older version of wamp. You can add an older version of PHP to the installation. Older versions can be downloaded and installed from here:

http://www.wampserver.com/en/addons_php.php

PHP 5.2.11 worked for me.

After installing it, click on the wampserver tray icon, go to PHP, then Version, and then click on the version you just downloaded.

The change either takes a moment to actually 'take', or you need not to have the localhost open in your browser when you make the change. But it works!

Thanks!

or there is second variant too... open file > C:\wamp\www\drupal\includes\file.inc
and change the value in line 902 ..only add mb_ after that its looks like this > elseif ($depth >= $min_depth && mb_ereg($mask, $file)) {
