Is this a Win7 64bit deal? I never had the problem with the 32bit.

The one skype item I have run across is this:

Other Issues:
APACHE Wont start: Look at the Event Viewer and if Apache is complaining about only one app allowed on each port, its probably Skype that is causing this issue, or something else that has grabbed port 80 or which ever port you are using before you start wampapache.

SKYPE: By default Skype uses port 80 to initially establish connection to its central server, if you are also using port 80 for your Apache server you will have to configure Skype to stop it using port 80. This is done by going to Skype and clicking the Tools menu -> options -> Advanced -> Connection. Uncheck the checkbox that says 'Use 80 and 443 as alternatives for incoming connections'.

Never mind. I got it going.
Taskbar > Apache > Service > Test port 80. If showing it's not there. Install service.
Worked for me
