1.) Download the latest Windows zip package from http://php.net/downloads
2.) Unzip the contents to d:\php
3.) Copy all files from d:\php\dlls\ to %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\
4.) Copy all files from d:\php\sapi\ to %SYSTEMROOT%\system32\
5.) Copy d:\php\php.ini to %SYSTEMROOT%\php.ini
6.) Open IIS, and select the option to add a Web Service Extension.
7.) Call the extension "PHP"
8.) Set the path as to the location of the php5isapi.dll file.
        (It's probably d:\windows\system32\php5isapi.dll)
9.) Set the status to "Allow"
10.) Right-click the "Web Sites" folder, and select Properties.
11.) On the "Home Directory" tab, select "Configuration"
12.) Click "Add", then browse to the php5isapi.dll file, set the
extension as .php, and deselect "Verify that the file exists".
13.) Click OK.
14.) Apply the setting to all sites.
15.) Restart IIS

    That should do it.
