I have the same problem. My system is
Win XP Prof SP2, PHP 5.2.6 and PHP 5.2.7
Bulgarian settings changed to English for the decimal separator
None of the solutions worked. PHP Sucks:((((

I'd like to confirm that this error occurs on 32-bit Vista systems in
Dutch locale, also.
Running the installer from a batch as suggested above successfully
executed the installation, however.

I can confirm this bug in the installer!
My system is Norwegian, and uses , as decimal point, and when i changed
regional options to english as "tamasmatrai" pointed out, installer
finished successfully.

Solution!!!
I had the same problem on Windows XP. I read the event viewer and found
detailed info:
"Product: PHP 5.2.6 -- Error 1720. There is a problem with this Windows
Installer package. A script required for this install to complete could
not be run. Contact your support personnel or package vendor. Custom
action configIIS4 script error -2146828275, Microsoft VBScript
futásidejû hiba: Típuseltérés: '[string: "5.1"]' Line 179, Column 5, "
The key was this: "Típuseltérés: '[string: "5.1"]' Line 179, Column 5,
." 'Típuseltérés' is a Hungarian term, which means 'data type error'.
So, '5.1' is not a number in a vb script which is run by the
installation.
Decimal separator was ',' (comma) on my system and when I changed it to
'.' (dot), then installation was completed successfully!
So try this! It is a bug and this was the first time I tried to install
PHP. After such a problem I will think 10000 times if I use PHP. :o I am
a programmer and if I would leave such a bug in my application, I would
be sacked from my workplace without any doubt.
