Newbie: PHP4.3 not working with Apache2

Hopefully someone here can provide a relatively simple solution to my
problem or tell me the basic mistake I've made ...

I have installed Apache 2.0.48 on Win2k pro and it is serving static
HTML pages without problem.

I am now attempting to get Apache to process php files. I have added
the following 3 lines to Apache's httpd.conf:

ScriptAlias /php/ "c:/php/"

AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

Action application/x-httpd-php "/php/php.exe"

PHP is installed in C:/PHP.

When I attempt to call my phpinfo.php using
http://localhost/phpinfo.php I get the message:

"No input file specified."

in my browser.

phpinfo.php source :

<?php

phpinfo();

?>

Many thanks in advance

Graham.

OK, OK, it's me being stupid!!

I had downloaded and installed the incorrect version of PHP, the one
without all the external extensions. Now downloading the correct one
and trying again.

Sorry.

Graham.

No input file specified means either your DocumentRoot is wrong or you
didn't put phpinfo.php in the right folder. Apache doesn't check to see if
the file is there before it lauches php.exe, and "No input file specified"
is PHP's way of saying "File not found."
