Read both these entries in the PHP Manual:
Manual Installation Steps
Apache 2.0.x on Microsoft Windows

Then download Apache HTTP server (version 2) and the PHP zip package (not the installer).
Install Apache using its installer, then follow the instructions from the PHP Manual.

No, just download and extract (unzip) the zip package to a convenient directory, e.g. c:\php

Let Apache be installed to its default location.
