I'm having problem to startup Apache in my Windows XP. It shown up "32548: Only one usage of each socket address ... is notmally permitted...blah blah blah...."
That means that Apache is trying to use a port that the system is already using. Go to the cmd promt and type 'netstat -a' and look for what is using port 80. Go to your http.conf and go to line 268 and change the '80' to say, 85. I don't think that anything else uses port 80 by default (I could be wrong). If something else is using port 80, let me know what it is for future reference.
I am not sure if IIS installs by default in XP Professional, if so or if you have installed it at sometime than this is the process using port 80. Assuming it is an IIS issue, either change the port IIS or Apache uses or disable the IIS Admin Service under Windows Services if you don't want IIS running at all.
