Hi there!
My best advise is to go to uTube and in the search bar place as follows:
uTube videos how to install xampp and wordpress
You will find many vids on the installations, chose the one that is close to your configurations. I did and I have it working, although WordPress is a difficult program to understand. I'm used to standard directories where I can find my web site pages and see them there, wordpress does not do this and so I'm stumped on its use.
Hope you get the benefit you were looking for.
Best of luck.
