I see several problems.
1) It's bad practice to put the log file in C:\Inetpub\wwwroot where anyone can access it.
It's a major security issue.
2) It's been over 3 years since I dealt (hands on) with WinXP so here goes... IIS by default
runs as NETWORK SERVICE. That builtin account does not have create/modify rights on
C:\Inetpub\wwwroot (by default). Thus you wouldn't be able to see the file created.

This is a good sign as it seems IIS is trying to run PHP but having some problems. Check the System
& Application event logs for errors. Change phperror.log file location, restart IIS, and try
phpinfo.php again.
