Thanks, I've just realised what a stupid mistake that was.

Hi, I am experiencing problems installing Apache 2.2.11 including open-ssl
onto my Windows Vista Ultimate (no service pack) machine. I have followed
tutorials I have seen online about running the installer from command
prompt
(as Adminstrator) and installing Apache outside of the Program Files
directories. I have installed into C:\apache. I wish to change the
DocumentRoot from the standard htdocs (which does work) and move it to
c:\webroot. However when I do this I am returned a 403 Forbidden error. I
have tried to copy and paste the existing htdocs directory (from c:\apache
too c:\webroot\htdocs) amending the htpd.conf file as applicable and still
experience the same difficulty. I am a new user of Vista so not 100% on
everything as yet. Done some searches online and have'nt been able to pick
up anything. Thanks In Advance. Ian
What does your error.log say when you hit the 403? Did you update all
the references to c:\apache\htdocs, or just the DocumentRoot line?
You need to do the former.
