Make sure that the default firewall with XP is disabled and try again
(or set up the firewall -- ICF, I think it's called) to allow port 80
(if that is the port set to Apache -- usually is by default). Try
restarting Apache after that and see if allows access.

Also, in a DOS prompt, type "netstat -ano" and see if port 80 is being
listened to, and check the pid, then check in Admin Tools --> Services
(in the Control Panel) to see if Apache is the process running on that
port.
