The directions you link to aren't particularly good; they're for setting up as
CGI rather than a module, and miss out several of the possible additional bits
of configuration you may have to do.

Try the instructions from the manual and see if you have more luck with them:

http://www.php.net/manual/en/install.windows.iis.php

It may even be that you have PHP running but it has short_open_tags disabled;
depends whether you changed the config.

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

... is a useful snippet to use whilst testing, as it dumps out all the PHP
configuration information if PHP is working.
