I'd be checking the apache logs for errors. If you get back to the 
captcha it seems that it is somehow failing to send you the file.

I have never tryed it on Windows, but are you using the cgi/cli or a 
module? AFAIR php should be used as CLI on Windows (but I might be wrong 
here.)

Please send me the error row in your apache log.

the memory limit should not be changed (imho 8MB are more than enough, 
should even work with 2MB)

output buffering should be disabled by the php script when sending the 
page, but I'm not sure if it works when this is enabled by default
