Error with php server

Hello, I have this massive bit of code with loads of 'for' and nested 'for' loops. It would be easier for both of us if I didnt have to explain why. Anyway, I'm using IIS version 5.1 to execute this script. However, when running the script, it will get about 1/4 of the way finished and come up with an error:
The specified CGI application exceeded the allowed time for processing. The server has deleted the process.
How would I go about increasing the time before the CGI deletes the process? Thanks

I have set that very high, but the problem isnt with the script execution time, its with IIS deleting the CGI process (i.e. php.exe). I believe I would have to change something in IIS, but cant find where

I found out how to change the CGI timeout setting on IIS. This is for anyone else that is having the problem:

Click Start -> Settings -> Control Panel -> Administrative tools -> Internet Information services

Right click on the 'Web Sites' folder, and click properties.

Under the Home Directories Tab, click 'Configuration...' at the bottom right.

Go to the 'Process Options' tab, and change the 'CGI Script Timeout' to a larger value
