Win XP + IIS 5.2 - Application Error in php-cgi.exe

I've just installed PHP 5.2 on Windows XP (SP2). I've read all the
permissions text on the PHP directory and checked that. It seems OK.
However, when I try to display the simple sample from the PHP docs
(Hello World), I get the following error....

php-cgi.exe - Application Error
The instruction at "0x100974cd" referenced memory at "0x00000014". The
memory could not be "read".

I've uninstalled and re-installed PHP 5.2, checked everything
carefully. No joy!

Can anyone please help????

Regards, crater

you need the php.exe, not the php-cgi.exe.
Maybe you install the wrong PHP version ?

An easy solution is to use wampserver.

Not according the the documentation I have for PHP 5.2. Besides, the
installer set it all up, and I assume that it knows what it is doing.

I uninstalled PHP 5.2 this morning and re-installed it again. This time
it seems to be working!@*#~%.

Many thanks to all responders.
