Some thoughts; don't mess with the HKLM\Services key ever, always use httpd.exe -k config. Another thought - using UAC? If you don't understand how it can hide file changes and keep them private to your login, disable it. You changed the run-as user of the httpd service? Perhaps it doesn't have write access to the logs directory. Perhaps you broke permissions on the volume for the SYSTEM (aka LocalSystem) account? It needs list and read directory permission all the way from the root to all of the files it uses or serves. > FYI, nothing shows up in the error log to explain this.
