I am having trouble with the Apache service when I try to start it I ge the following error:

Your port 80 is actually being used by:
Server: Microsoft IIS/5.1

How can I correct this too run the Apache service?

Thanks in Advance.

As it stated, you need to disable IIS. If using xp folows these steps:

1. Shut down wamp
2. Next, click Start / Control Panel / Add or Remove Programs
3. Then select Add/Remove Windows Components
4. In Windows Components Wizard, uncheck the box Internet Information Services (IIS)
5. Restart computer
6. Start wamp

If using Vista, do these:

1. Shut down wamp
2. Next, click Start / Control Panel / Uninstall Programs
3. Then select Turn Windows Features On or Off
4. In Turn Windows Features On or Off, uncheck the box Internet Information Services
5. Restart computer
6. Start wamp


Have fun,
