Argh. I’ve had this problem at least twice already, but since it’s always so long interval between installing Skype on a new PC and Xampp I always forget this:
Skype uses ports 80 and 443 by default.
That’s why Xampp doesn’t work, Apache won’t start but there is no error message either. Hopefully I will remember this time…
