Can anyone help me configure php-cgi in Windows 7? I'm trying to do what is described in this tutorial and I'm not getting through to Windows. I've researched various things on the internet and tried a few, but was not successful. Would anyone help me how can I do this to make it work?

If you only need PHP on the commandline, PHP is easy enough to install. It's just a case of unzipping the .zip file, duplicating php.ini-development as php.ini, then you should be good to go, unless you need to add any extensions, or change any settings (for this tutorial, you shouldn't need to do anything more than this).
If you want to get it running quickly with IIS on Windows, the quickest and easiest way I've found is to use PHP Manager. It'll set up a fast CGI handler for PHP for you just by navigating to the PHP executable and it's all easily configurable via an icon in IIS Manager.
