Clean Install Fails to Save Post

I am brand new to WordPress forums, so please forgive me if I format this incorrectly. I’ve spent the last two hours looking at other posts about this subject, but most of them seem to be related to plugins.

I am running 3.9.1 on Windows 8.1 x64 with all of the latest patches as of 7/10/2014. I use Chrome Version 35.0.1916.153 m and Firefox 30.0. This test is with WAMPServer 2.5. I use the default 2014 theme. There are NO active plugins or changes other than naming the site.

I’ve cleared my cache, used two different browsers with the same result, and used two different themes (2012 and 2014) with the same results. I’ve completely deleted the directory and DB, recreated them both – 3 times now – to see if there was something I could identify.

With a clean installation, I can create a page, save it as a draft, and then “View Page” through the Permalink breadcrumb or the “View Page” under the “Edit Page” title.

However, once I try to publish the page, I get a 404 error. The file system shows the subdirectory where the page is supposed to be saved does not exist.

If I use Firefox Dev Tools, I get the following error list:
