i have detailed apache2, php5 and postgresql8 winxp
install instructions here:

http://www.geocities.com/operationsengineer1/

since you are mostly set up, you likely can review 99%
of it without doing anything. if your isntall
deviated from this install, then you can make the
adjustment.

this is for a cgi install. i think it is sufficient.
i've recommended about 5 or so people to it and not
one has come back with a problem.

in addition, search this mailing list for a similar
problem about within the last few weeks. someone had
a similar problem and posted the solution with the
last few weeks.

good luck.
