You are talking about a few issues.

1. turn on / uncomment the extensions in the php.ini (use phpinfo.php
to figure out which php.ini you are using)

2. 404 means the requested doc or url is wrong or doesnt exist. this
isnt your webserver or php's fault. fix the url.

3. make sure you tell IIS to use the php.exe for all .php scripts
