XAMPP <http://www.apachefriends.org/en/xampp.html> worked really well
for me. But, like a lot of other all-in-one packages, you'll need to
do some messing around to get it secure and production-ready.

As a test server (on my own XP system), it works wonderfully. It was
easy to set up (although I did have some issues with MySQL not finding
the logs). It includes everything you'll need, and comes with PHP5 and
4 (5 is default).

After installing it and doing some basic tests, try doing some
digging. There's a lot in there.
