Open it in your browser and check if web server is running OK.

Download .msi APACHE installer
I don't have a webserver!

No it will not, I ran the installer:
1. Welcome to Installation Wizard for Apache HTTP server 2#2#22 ....Next
2. Licence Agreement ...Accept....Next
3. "Read this first" page ...Next
