Successfully, installed the XAMP software. Apache and MySql running in the control panel. However its just hanging. I entered http://localhost/ in the browser. I tried various install version and I still hang. I can't get the splash page. its there something I have to change in my environment or something else?

If both Apache and MySQL are showing the green running in the XAMPP Control Panel then it is possible that your firewall, Anti-virus scanner or ZoneAlarm and the like may be at fault by blocking the ports used by XAMPP - try temporarily disabling them, then try again to access http://localhost.

If that works then you will have to configure the offender to allow XAMPP access.
