Instructions for setting up MySQL and PHP

Ok, I've had too many problems with this already...

Can someone please give me some step by step instructions on how to set up MySQL and PHP (Apprently they have to be done in this order... hmm) :confused:

Here's what I'm using:

Windows 2000 Professional / IIS 5.0

Please help me out here - I've tried doing all kinds of stuff, but none of it worked so I uninstalled everything and I want to start over from the beginning.

Thanks for all help!! It's REALLY appreciated.

Please don't crosspost - other thread in MySQL forum

sorry, I was thinking it might classify as a cross post - but this is more of a "start from scratch" thread....

I thought it'd be ok

To prevent his from being a crosspost you could ask how do I install PHP. And then in the MySQL forum you could ask how do I install MySQL. I will close this thread so as not to cause confusion since this is already being discussed in your other thread.
