Well, i've solved the problem. I tried to test port 80 and it said: Your port 80 is actually used by Server: Microsoft -IIS/7.5. I changed my Apache Server from using port 80 to 8080 in http.conf , restart the server and everything is work now.

If you changed the port Apache runs on you'll have to add this port the url.

IIS and Apache/Wamp are both web server and might conflict in some way, so you have to disable IIS in order for Wamp to work

Disable IIS in Vista/7:

Control Panel, Uninstall Programs, Turn Widows Features On or Off, uncheck Internet Information Services

Disable IIS in XP:

Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components, uncheck Internet Information Services (IIS)

Restart computer, then restart Wamp

Also, open file hosts in folder C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc and delete anything in there and have only this line and nothing else

127.0.0.1 localhost
