Hi,

I am a newer of OpenScholar and want to install it to test domain experts site building.

I downloaded drupal-openscholar-7.x-3.28.0 and openscholar-SCHOLAR-3.30.1 separately. But I do not know how to install it on my laptop which runs under the MS windows XP.

Could you give me some advices or documents ?

thanks very much.
