While I learned a TON setting up Apache, PHP and MySQL on my windows
box a while back, after my annual windows reinstall I just used XAMP
from http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp-windows.html

It's worked great for me in a dev environment. I don't know how it
would work out in a production environment.
