I just got a new laptop with Vista on it, and can't seem to install PHP5, Apache, or MySQL properly.

MySQL seems to install fine, but I've mostly been having issues with the other two. I've tried WAMP, hand-installing, and using the installers on Apache's site as well as php.net, but no results. Hand-installing leads to Apache not being able to 'find' the php5apache2_2.dll file, while using the installers causes it to still attempt to download my test PHP file. I tried to edit them by hand, but still got this result. The WAMP caused the same issue as using the installers.

Is there something different that I need to use for Vista than I do XP? Or do they just not install properly?
