How do I install PHP on IIS?

Hello everyone, I hope someone can help with a simple question. Is there a simple instruction sheet for installing Zen-Cart on Win2003/IIS6 ?

Installing PHP 5.2.6, I am presented with 3 choices for Server setup:
IIS ISAPI Module
IIS FastCGI
IIS CGI
Either one of the first two gives an error about unable to find/access httpd.conf
Is IIS CGI the one I am supposed to choose?
Then, when I try to run the zc_install\index.php, I get errror "The specified module could not be found" :( :oops:

HELP please!

CGI or Fast CGI should work, you must also configure your web server to allow scripts

If this is for an install on a home PC then uninstall IIS and install XAMPP instead. XAMPP is a full-featured all-in-one Apache web server package with all you need to run Zen Cart on your local PC for test purposes.
