Here's a tutorial I had written for a couple of my friends to install Apache2, PHP 5.x and MySQL. It is slightly outdated however.

Download PECL Modules for PHP
--Unzip
----Copy "php_pdf.dll" and "php_zip.dll" to "C:\PHP\ext\"
Optional - Download phpMyAdmin
--Unzip to "C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs"
--Rename folder to "phpMyAdmin"
--Open "config.inc.php"
----Change 'host' to 'localhost'
----Change 'port' to '8080'
----Change 'password' to what you set it while installing MySQL
----"http://localhost:8080/phpMyAdmin/" runs it
***ALL DOCUMENTS GO IN THE FILE "C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache2\htdocs"***
Hint: Make shortcut on your desktop.
To Run Files:
--Run Apache2
----Program Files > Apache HTTP Server x.x.x > Control Apache Server > Start Apache in Console
----Program Files > MySQL > MySQL Server x.x
Extras:
--Download the icon files for PHP and set up PHP files to have that icon

I also have some nice batch files for running the server and shutting it down if you want them.
If you're having trouble installing it feel free to IM me on AIM.
