you must use single quotes in system() call
ping ping whats that check your erorr logs
this worked for me
<?
//escaping the backslash and in single quotes
//this works for win98/apache/php4apache.dll
//NOTE: this and the php4isapi.dll is not yet ready

echo"<pre>";
$dd=system('c:\\windows\\ping 127.0.0.1');
echo "$dd ;;this is a test";
echo"</pre>";
?>
