I have had this problem all day. What I did to resolve the problem.

I downloaded the latest version of php from php.net then ran the installer. It gave me the option to remove php so I did so(It doesn't remove any files from wamp). I think I had a install of php from ages ago, hence the conflict. This may be your problem too!

I proceeded to install the new version of php I just downloaded(PHP 5.2.3 installer windows binary) into the php folder in wamp directory and set the apache conf directory which is in the wamp/apache folder too during setup.

This resolved the problem for me but I am not sure if the installation of php was needed as I didn't check after the initial program removal.

This might work for you or others.
