Apache won't start

I open the xampp control panel and try to start apache, and I get the following:(upon repeated clicks of the start button)
Code: Select all
Apache service started
Refresh...
Done
Busy....
Apache service started
Busy....
ERROR: Apache service not started [-1]
Busy...
Apache started [Port 80]



It still doesn't start and localhost won't work.
I had IIS installed but I have removed it, still nothing.

Any ideas?

Windows services are reporting their problems into the Windows event log.
