Are there any "all-in-one" installers for php + mysql on iis? Preferably with a gui configuration interface.

A:
I don't know of any all-in-one installers for both MySql and PHP, but PHP itself comes with an automated installer that will attach itself to IIS - but the preferred method is still manual (the automated procedure only uses CGI). There are plenty of how-to pages on the web that give you the step-by-step procedure required to get setup (and these differ based on your version of IIS) - I suggest you use one of those instead.
Some links to get you started:

It is actually more for running open source bug tracking apps, project management apps, etc and not for doing any dev so speed isn't that important.

I know this is not a direct answer, but a point of interest only. If you are looking for something that runs php/mysql that is quick to get setup for testing purposes you could try using a virtual appliance+vmware server/player

I've tried running virtual machines but the server doesn't like the extra load.

Really? Hrm, thats inetrsting. I have found that the specialized virtual machines can run on tiny amounts of ram (depends of course on what you are doing) and the server desnt even break a sweat. Oh well. Anyhow, sorry i could not have been more help.

The PHP part is easy with Web Platform Installer:
MySQL is a breeze to install on Windows:
