if this is just for a local copy of wordpress to develop and test it, and not for a live production version then yes, install it in apachefriends/xampp/htdocs/wordpress/ and then it should be available to play with at:
http://localhost/wordpress/
if this is for the live production server, then, forget it, choose a proper webhosting organisation and don't try to host it yourself. There are too many security issues with hosting nowadays and no-one should host themselves unless they know what they are doing.

cheers
