If you have both Apache and IIS running there may well be some conflict between to two.

You're not the first to encounter this.

Can you relay which troubleshooting steps you have already ruled out?

If they are on different ports there will not be any 'conflicts'

but I just get the php code in the browser and nothing is interpreted

Which means that the IIS does not have the appropriate modules installed or configured for passing PHP code to the interpreter.

xampp easily works in parallel to IIS with changed port. Wamp should do, too.
You changed the apache config (httpd.conf) from [tt]Listen 80[/tt] to [tt]Listen 8080[/tt]? Don't forget to restart apache

All these conf and ini files are read at startup, they are not live config! That's also valid for php.ini
Also, do you call your php scripts correctly? Are you using URI

http://localhost:8080/your.php?

Do you put your php files into webroot?

Sorry, if you're not that new to this and don't make these mistakes, but all of this has to be done to make it work.

Bye, Olaf.
