The system is Windows XP home edition and

apache_1.3.28-win32-x86-no_src.exe

The following is the step that used for my installation:
   1)    Turned Apachee off
   2)    downloade and extracted php-4.3.4-Win32.zip and renamed
directory

to  C:\PHP
   3)    opened install.txt
   4)    I copied php4ts.dll and php4apache.dll into Windowows\system32
and

the Apache root directoy
   5)    Renamed php.ini-dist to php.ini and moved it to the Windows
directory
   6)    added apache path "C:\Program Files\Apache Group\Apache\htdocs"
to

php.ini with quotes
   7)    added the following text:
               # LoadModule php4_module "c:/php/sapi/php4apache.dll"
               # AddModule mod_php4.c
               # AddType application/x-httpd-php .php

   8)    to httpd.conf which is in the apache root.
   9)    turned apache on
   10)    type in the url http://localhost and the Apache test page
appears

   11)    type in the url http://localhost/phpinfo.php and the download
file box appears. phpinfo.php has the text <?   php phpinfo();  ?>
Please can u help me?

I thank u for any help that may be forth coming.

John,

Just a thought. In your point 7 where you show the LoadModule lines etc, 
you have hash as the first character. This comments out the line. As you 
are getting the file download dialog it means that Apache httpd is not 
sending a php file to the php module. This is possibly because you have 
those lines commented out?
