It's probably not as hard as it looks, if you want to give it a shot try something like this:

If you have IIS or Microsoft PWS (Personal Web Server ?), you only need to download and install 

http://www.php.net/get/php-4.3.2-installer.exe/from/a/mirror

Else you have to download and install an other webserver, I would guess you'd want apache as this is most likely what you'll be running on the live site aswell (But maybe some windows gurus reading this can correct me)

Apache download:
http://www.apache.org/dist/httpd/binaries/win32/apache_1.3.28-win32-x86-no_src.msi

I have no experience installing/ configuring apache on windows, so I don't know how hard this will be. (My guess is ionstalling is point and click, configuring may be a bit more trouble.)

After that read the instructions that come with the php download to install for apache.
