The problem could srping from the automatically generated entries in the System Settings form.
The line "The site URL"
had the windows path name in it after http://127.0.0.1/

the path 127.0.0.1/E:/elgg-1.7.10/action/register
is almost correct operationals
reckon it should have said 127.0.0.1/elgg-1.7.10/action/register
"Cannot map POST /E:/elgg-1.7.10/action/register "
true -- reason as above
"change the .htaccess file to uncomment RewriteBase /elgg/ "
was most likely part of the situation/ correction
"the automatically generated entries in the System Settings for "
that would be using your input from intall-time, not exactly automatic
I had changed the .htaccess to uncomment RewriteBase /elgg/
before reporting the error. I suspect that is due, in some way, to installing on my PC and using the 127.0.0.1 address, because when I had finished negotiating with the Hosting service and installed it live, it worked straightaway.
I got it to work on my PC by manually editing the settings page.
