The installer does not come with the extension libraries (such as GD) you need to get these from the zip package:
PHP Downloads Page wrote:

    (CGI binary plus server API versions for Apache, Apache2 (experimental), ISAPI, NSAPI, Servlet and Pi3Web. MySQL support built-in, many extensions included, packaged as zip)
  • PHP 4.3.4 installer [1,043Kb] - 03 November 2003
    (CGI only, MySQL support built-in, packaged as Windows installer to install and configure PHP, and automatically configure IIS, PWS and Xitami, with manual configuration for other servers. N.B. no external extensions included)
