Setting up web server in windows 7. HELP.

  I really like the new windows 7. it installed itself andall the hardware without me having to look for any drivers including my tuner card. I was recording a basketball game within 20 minutes without having to add any additional software. I was previously using this machine as a web server for development running 2003 server 64 bit / apache/php/mysql. I was able to set up the same configuration however I can't access pages in sub folders only pages directly in the htdocs folder. I then installed iis 7 to get the same result in the inetpub folder. The iis was able to access subfolder pages using 127.0.0.1 and 192.168 (static ip calling itself) but my main machine that I develop from (running xp 64 bit) can not access those pages. I get network timed out error messages.
  
  Apache 2.2.11, PHP 5.2.5 - 5.2.8 and lates download, mysql 5.1.30
  
  1) tried htdocs on share drive ()
  2) installed on C (windows 7) drive same effect
  3) installed just appach no php or mysql (same effect)
  3) IIS 7 C drive first time able to access subfolders on itself via ip addresses but not from another machine.
  
  Thanks for any insight,
