XAMPP seems to not be starting up the Apache and mySQL when i tell it to. It ran fine until today where it suddenly stopped working. I ran the port check and it said all my ports were free to be used (when they wernt loaded) and then I tried running, they say they start but when i attempt to access localhost it times out after trying for a good few minutes. I checked my firewall, everything is set on the program list control, i tried turning off the firewall, still problems.

Try adding this line to the end of your
xampp\apache\conf\httpd.conf file:
Win32DisableAcceptEx
Try and restart Apache again after you have saved the edited file.
I had a similar issue once and added the above line which fixed it for me.

The
DeskTopXampp launch control for
XAMPP and
XAMPPlite (DTX.exe)
is available here:

I highly recommend DTX.

This might help:

From "The Apache Directives Quick Reference"
