This might help:

http://tutorialized.com/tutorial/Installing-a-Webserver-on-Windows-VERSION-2/5604


but I think you're most likely sufferring from a mismatch between PHP 5
and MySQL (existing) might make sense to back up all your mysql data and
uninstall everything AMP related and start again, either with the tutorial
above or one of the WAMP versions here:

http://www.wampserver.com/en/index.php

(if you don't mind Apache1.3)

or here is a great looking tutorial that seems to cover IIS disablement
too!

http://www.wampserver.com/en/index.php

let me know which works best - I'll have to do it soon...

;o)
