Okay, I'll try that method and try to document what is needed for win 8.1

This looks more like a configuration problem of Apache. The default 
httpd.conf might be the problem.

DocumentRoot "D:/webserver/htdocs"
<Directory "D:/webserver/htdocs">
     Options Indexes FollowSymLinks Includes ExecCGI
     AllowOverride All
     Require all granted
</Directory>

It's on localhost so I'm not really afraid that others will access the 
server :-) Change the directory to whatever is used on your system.

With Fluid (the templating engine in Flow/Neos/TYPO3 CMS) I found that 
another setting needs to be changed for Apache on Windows. In 
apache\conf\extra\httpd-mpm.conf set

<IfModule mpm_winnt_module>
     ThreadStackSize      8388608
</IfModule>

This is the same ThreadStackSize as used in other OS installations. For 
some reason it's far lower in the default windows configuration.

Do not forget to restart the Apache process (using the XAMPP Control Panel).
