I use HKLM\\System\\CurrentControlSet\\Services for detecting the service
and HKLM/SOFTWARE/ for detecting the server root (the
System\\CurrentControlSet\\Services gives me the version to look for)

It works for you and it works for me but several users have had problems
when libdb40.dll are not in Apache/bin or the modules folder.

It's possible with *.msi and a lot of other Windows installers.. ..and
it's possible in Inno Setup too.
I like Inno Setup, Inno Setup have a big devoted community. If I die,
quit or ends my Subversion relation in another way, then it's many well
skilled people who are ready to take over. It's one word here or in the
Inno Setup News group and I'm history :-)

Why should anything be corrupted?
I assume that anyone who are doing apache from source, manually or in
another way are using an unusual apache setup can install this manually.
If the installer finds apache when the data are found where they are
supposed to be in the registry, then it will install the modules and
alter the httpd.conf file if the user say yes to do so when the
installer asks.
