Don't you mean SVN and not CVS?

The two things (for starters, at least) you need are:

   1) Subversion
   2) Apache (IF you want to run an Apache setup. Otherwise,
               you can still run Subversion under Svnserve,
               which is simpler.)

SlikSVN and VisualSVN are clients that can be installed
on your Windows system.

For Subversion? Yes. There are others of course, but I'm
using TortoiseSVN.

Yes. Read the book while you're at it to further
understand what Subversion is about.

If, on the other hand, you are looking for CVS, then you're
looking at the wrong site. :)
