It was the permalinks. Thanks for the help. I previously got a 404 error also Jinxi. I looked at my httpd folder and restored the site conf file to default and also the httpd.conf file to default settings. I was fortunate to have a restore drive with all backups of the main OS.
It seems to work fine when it is on the default scheme, but if I try to change to any other different scheme it displays a blank screen.
