php.ini -> Screenshot by Lightshot
Xampp Control Panel ->Screenshot by Lightshot
E:\WINDOWS\system32\drivers\etc\hosts ->Screenshot by Lightshot

I'm also using NO-IP -> Screenshot by Lightshot

I tried this on Windows7 and it worked my friends can access it but when i downgraded my OS to Windows XP they can't access it online, please help me.

Have you port-forwarded Port 80 from your router? Try to check.

open port 80, like he said.

although, check your phpinfo(), if your php is v 5.3+ php_mssql.dll wont be supported anymore, take a look on the sqlsrv extention (vc9). u can see its not supported on windows anymore here: PHP: Requirements - Manual

• check if your friends accessing the right IP (What Is My IP Address? Lookup IP, Hide IP, Change IP, Trace IP and more...)
• open \apache\conf\httpd.conf and change
  Code:

  ---

  ServerName localhost:80

  ---

  to
  Code:

  ---

  ServerName YOUR_IP:80

  ---

• check your firewall, does it maybe block port 80?
• check if something else is using port 80, like skype.
• can u access your local website with your intern ip (192.168.*.*)? (check your tcpipv4)
• try even open port 8080, and if u use ssl (https) open 443 too.

then your xampp/php is outdated, but use it if you dont have big plans on your host. ^_^

If your xampp don't work perfectly, you can get a fresh one here.
