Installing PHP on XP problems

[Chucky]

I tried to install PHP with Apache server and with IIS from windows XP. In
both cases server works, but the system can not load a .php script but asks
for a program with which the file was created. For IIS there is even an
installer so there is no chance of wrong setup.

But i am still doing something wrong, so if anyone have any suggestions
please help.

Have you followed the installation notes from php.net?

Here's the link:

It seems like your servers are not set up to pass control of .php files
to PHP.
For Apache and PHP installed as a module you have to have

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

in httpd.conf. I don't know how to set up IIS.
