where did you install XAMPP?
is your Windows 32 or 64 Bit?

Its most likely NOT a problem with your installation
The original control panel and install had some issues.

http://arloh.de/xampp/xampp_control3.0.2.zip after it is unpacked copy xammp-control3.exe to the c:\xampp folder, then start it by double-clicking.
Good Luck

hi,
now everything works fine. The only thing that changed is that i am running that file to start xampp instead of the original one.
Now i have another problem, and i am wondering if it is not related to the same issue.
I tried to install a pear package. but i have the following error:
