Do you get a cookie stored in your browser? If not then I suspect your session.cookie_path and session.cookie_domain settings. Try using the php.ini defaults and see if that works. If so you can then modify the settings to be what you need. I tend to leave these settings at their default values (but as you are on MS Windows you will need to make some changes). Hope this helps.
