I tried to install Mediawiki 1.3.9 on my local german WinXP SP 2 notebook, using a fresh XAMPP 1.4.10a installation.

But after entering all the data and submitting the page, I get a blank page in response. No LocalSettings.php file is generated. The wikidb database was created, but seems to be incomplete. (Some tables seems to be missing.)
I strongly recommend you try 1.4beta3.
A lot of problems on Windows and some 'funky' configurations were caused by interactions with the PHPTal template library that 1.3 used for the default page skin. We're no longer using that by default (the new skin was redone without it) and it should go smoother.
It might not solve your problem, but do try this first.
