As Jeff noted, you can just use MS4W and that's surely the path of least resistance. Or you can download and install Apache and PHP separately and just use the mapserv binaries in cgi-bin from the MS4W distribution, and maybe the http*.conf files as guidance for your own setup. Having setup a lot of MapServers over the last 10 years it is my personal experience that Apache is easier to setup and maintain than IIS. I'm not sure why MS4W has the warnings that it is primarily for development and not hardened for production use, but I wouldn't let those warnings discourage you from using it on a production server.
Great points from Rich. Just one additional note: recent versions of MS4W don't have these 'not for production' warnings.
