I agree.
But I use the self installed files and if something doesn't work, I
fix that.
Windows and Internet Explorer has a 85% market share.

Ensure you have IIS installed and running, by default IIS is not
installed. You'll need you installation cd for this.
Download the non-self installer file (this creates more headaches than
it solves).
Extract the files to the root of the drive i.e. C\php
Read the installation instructions very carefully. All the information
is there but it is a bit all over the place.
Also ensure that you have your environment variables set correctly.
In IIS create your virtual web folder. This can be on any drive and
any folder you like i.e. d:\webfiles. Under IIS I could call this
widgets (just to confuse everyone including myself)
When you think you have it running, create a test page in your web
folder (filename- test1.php):
<?php
echo phpinfo();
?>
and run it by:
http://localhost/widgets/test1.php
