Is there a difference in setting up PHP on Windows XP versus Windows 2003 for IIS?

Setting up PHP on Windows XP versus Windows 2003 for IIS may have some differences due to the operating system version and IIS configuration. However, the general steps for setting up PHP on both systems involve downloading the PHP installation package, configuring IIS to work with PHP, and testing the PHP installation by creating a PHP file and accessing it through a web browser.
