Go to the Apache Website, download the latest version, and read the Windows and other docs on how to install.

1. Install IIS from Add/Remove Programs, Add/REmove Windows Components, and tick Internet Information Services (IIS). Insert CD if asked.
2. It will create a folder called C:\Inetpub and C:\Inetpub\wwwroot.
3. You can create your html pages and place them in wwwroot (or in subfolders if you wish)
4. Access web server locally via http://localhost/

Only kiddin' Apache or IIS is they way to go.
Maybe worth just researching the most appropriate option for you- depending on what you intend to do with your website
