?         Pass to this catalogue and find a file php.ini-dist. Place it  in the catalogue C:\Windows and rename in php.ini.

?         Then again return to catalogue PHP and copy files php4ts.dll and Mscvrt.dll in the catalogue C:\Windows\System\. If the file Mscvrt.dll already exists, do not rewrite it .

ScriptAlias/cgi-bin/" C:/Apache/cgi-bin / "

?         

Under this line enter following

ScriptAlias/php4/" C:/php4 / "

?         

Then find these stochki:

*AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Under them add

AddType application/x-httpd-php .phtml .php

AddType application/x-httpd-php-source .phps
