Either you’ve configured your Apache that it just is accessible from the local machine or something else is preventing the access (i.e. Windows firewall, networking and such).

My advice:

• Try checking your Windows firewall if its configured to let http pass to your apache.
• Try checking your httpd.conf if you don’t listen to just a certain host.
• Try checking if your remote machine has any networking issues with prevents it to reach your apache.

This is how the httpd.conf might look like:

/* Example 1: Access only from local machine */
Listen 127.0.0.1:80

/* Example 2: Access from every machine */
Listen 80
