You can then install other bits and pieces contained to that directory, like ANT, PHP, MySQL and the like. It stops things being spread across your whole computer, but seperates it from the Program Files directory which I tend to avoid.

However if you have specified to install for yourself only, you can manually register Apache as a service after the installation using <code>apache -k install</code> in the command line.

From a command line in the Apache/bin folder run the following command: apache -k install This will allow you to run your services using the "Windows Services" tools running from within the Administrative Tools in your control panel. You can then setup whether to start the service when you first start your OS. You can also then manage you IIS instance and Apache from within that tool set (eg, switch between the two). A great supplement to this article is the "Using Apache with Microsoft Windows" located on the Apache website at this url: http://httpd.apache.org/docs/2.0/platform/windows.html Also be weary of whether you have an IIS server running already on port 80 as it may cause a fight for who serves user requests. Often Apache will not start if this is the case. To find if IIS server is running on your computer, load the Windows Services from Control Panel > Administrative Tools and find IIS Admin. It will have a status whether it is "Started" or "Stopped". Stop the IIS Admin to turn off your local SMTP and IISWWW Server. Good overview of the install under windows. :-)
