If you did that (and I do not know if you did), it would mean that Apache is already running as a service.

I think that when XAMPP is setup you can choose to install Apache as a service. Other than a program already listening on port 80, I am out of ideas. If you do not see it, that is good because that cannot be the cause of your problem. If you see that line with the State column showing LISTENING, you already have a program listening on that port. Near the top of the output, look for something like this in the Local Address column: 0.0.0.0:80 That will list all active programs listening for connections and the ports they are listening on.

When you get your Command Prompt opened, type this command in it: netstat -aon Or you can go to Start Menu -> All Programs -> Accessories -> Command Prompt. In Windows, you can go to Start Menu and in the search box type “cmd”. Let’s look at what programs are listening on your ports and see if anything is listening on port 80. The only other possibility I can think of is that there is another programming listening on port 80 and that is preventing Apache from binding on that port and causing it to shutdown immediately. If you installed XAMPP on your main hard drive, disabled your firewall software from interfering with communications (including the built-in Windows Firewall), and allowed XAMPP to run as administrator, it should work unless you made changes to the configuration files. If you type 127.0.0.1 into your browser’s address bar, do you get anything or just an error message? I am waiting for your reply …still its not working …
