Apache AND IIS? Why are you doing that?! These are two technologies which perform the same functionality, and running them side by side would require extra configuration.

WAMP5 is a nice installation for PHP, MySQL and Apache, as is NetServer. At the end of the day I feel that NetServer is more robust of a tool, but WAMP has a nice interface for configuration and setup.

Xammp is definitely way better. so if you had xampp in mind stick to it.
