  • Are you adding virtual hosts or anything? What is the output of httpd.exe -t?

    Before starting xampp check with nestat -an | findstr :80 if something is listening on port 80, if yes check with netstat -anob | more what application it is. It could be skype as skype uses port 80 if free when starting thus apache is not able to start. Do you have IIS running?
