Acutally, I spoke with the main developer of the windows binary at the PHP conference
in San Diego.he suggested that it is a better practice to put those dll's in the same
folder that php.exe is sitting in. He explained that php should still be able to find
them there and it's not good practice to be adding things to your system folder on
windows. I haven't tested it yet to make sure it still finds those dll's. I informed
him that his documentation for installation explained to put them in the system folder
and he said that was a legacy problem and he would make an effort to have those
installation directions removed on the next release of php win binary.

Hi,
Just to add to Arjen and Phils advice you need to the following.
From your C:\PHP directory you need to copy the files from the dlls
directory to the C:\windows\system directory .
Also from your C:\PHP directory you will need to copy the php4ts.dll to your
C:\windows\system directory
I hope that helps
