Why would you want Apache if you installed IIS?

PHP:  www.php.net

Apache:  www.apache.org

PHPMyAdmin:  www.phpmyadmin.net

There should be installers on the sites listed.

All I've ever done to get PHP to work on IIS7 is copy the php folder from another machine, create a handler mapping to the FastCGI Module and make sure the correct folder security is setup.  I've done this procedure with PHP version 5.2.x.  Regarding phpMyAdmin here is a thread on installing that product.  http://forums.iis.net/t/1116593.aspx   I'm not sure why you would want to install Apache on a W2k8 or Vista machine unless you have specific application requirements.

Daniel,

You want to follow http://www.iis.net/articles/view.aspx/IIS7/Hosting-Web-Applications/PHP/Using-FastCGI-to-host-PHP-applications-on-IIS7 for installing the built-in FastCGI on Windows Server 2008 beta3+.

For Vista, and Windows XP / Windows Server 2003, follow http://www.iis.net/default.aspx?tabid=2&subtabid=25&i=1345 to install the FastCGI OOB Techical Preview package. 

Thanks,
