I have only ever used Media Wiki for a school project and it was run on a Linux box with LAMP. It was really easy.

I assume you could do a similar thing with WAMP, but I have not tested that out yet. I would be interested to see how you fare, because I am thinking of setting one up at work.

VMWare is a good idea as well, like Scott mentioned it makes backing it up, complete with settings and everything a simple drag and drop procedure. This would be doubly easy if there was an actual appliance with a preconfigured software on it. If you find one throw out a link.

You need local privileged only to get it set up, but to actually run it from the server you would need admin rights.
