problems getting Apache to run

[ashannon]

I just installed xampp onto my home computer, which runs Windows XP Professional. Installation seemed to have worked ok.

However, when I tried to start Apache, the black screen (on which it said that "Apache2 is starting") appeared, then disappeared, and Apache had not started properly.

What is the problem?

One year ago, on my computer at work (Win 2000 Pro), I installed xampp without problem.
