[Xitami] Xitami/Vista/PHP combination

Hello,

I'm running Vista Home edition and Xitami v2.5b6. I'm trying to run PHP
5.2.5in combination with this. I've made the following alterations to
xitami.cfg:

[Filter]
.php=c:\php\php-cgi.exe 
[Mime]
php=application/x-httpd-php 

I've also changed php.ini:

cgi.force_redirect = 0

When I try running any .php-script, however, all I get is a Windows pop-up
message appears saying "CGI/FastCGI has stopped working: A problem caused the
program to stop working completely. Windows will close the program and notify
you if a solution is available". Oh...kay...

I don't think there's anything wrong with my configuration settings as such:
the interpreter obviously is found and the mime-types are configured
correctly, otherwise I wouldn't get this far. What happens is that the
interpreter (I've tried php.exe as well; same result) is started and then
crashes. I'm assuming this is a Vista-specific security issue, but I don't
know how to solve it?

Can anybody help me? Has anybody had similar experiences and found a fix?

Much obliged,
