As you have this on MS Windows rather than GNU Linux, I personally may 
not be able to help, but we will need more information from you in order 
to help.

What are the changes that you have put into httpd.conf for PHP (and 
presumably without them Apache does not crash)? What do you mean by 
crash? I mean here what exactly happens? Does Apache simply not start or 
does it start but complain if you point a browser at a PHP page. What, 
if anything, is in the Apache log after the crash?

Apache httpd has the useful characteristic of not starting up if there 
is an error in the httpd.conf file. I have found it useful to back out 
some of the changes I do when Apache does not start so that I can find 
what I have done wrong.
