Guessing that you have already looked at the task manager and confirmed it is
running, or no?
Some posts on the forum over at apachefriends.org relating to the same
symptoms, seems the most common oddness is inadvertently running one of the
xampp services as a service at start up rather than manually, try this:
Start the xampp control panel...
Go to Settings --> SCM
In Services (Local) right-click Apache2 --> Properties
Change Startup Type to "Manual"
