Did you install the svn binaries for apache 2.2 and not for apache 2.0?
Please make sure you have the correct version installed (and the correct
dlls copied).

Also, make sure the paths to the *.so modules is correct (they must be
in the modules subdir in the apache folder). The svn installer copies
them there automatically, but if you didn't use the installer, they
won't be there and you have to copy them manually.

You can get more information from the apache error log.

And you can start apache from the command line (there's an entry in the
start menu for this) which will give you more information about what's
wrong.

And one more thing: my name is Stefan, not Stephan.
