The x64 builds of PHP 5.5 are also flagged as experimental. They may
work fine as long as you don't need additional extensions, because these
might not be compatible with the x64 builds.
I suggest you stick with Apache 2.4 builds for x32 for the time being;
these should work fine with latest PHP 5.5.11 VC11 x32. XAMPP offers a
full download with quite recent versions for convenient installation and
use:
