Installing Sugar FastStack on Windows

You can install Sugar FastStack as a typical installation or a custom installation. While typical installation is recommended, you can choose custom installation for any of the following reasons:
Sugar FastStack is available for MySQL server (5.0.37) or for MS SQLServer. Both versions include PHP 5.2.5 and Apache 2.0.59.
If IIS is installed on your system, the Sugar Installer can use it instead of Apache Web Server. If IIS is not installed, the Sugar Installer will install Apache 2.0x.
