Problem using PHP with Apache (probably something silly)

Hello, First off, I hope everyone had Happy New Year. Onto business, I am trying to install PHP 5.2.0 on a WinXP computer, using Apache 2.2.3 as the web server with MySQL enabled extension. My problem is that when I start up Apache with the edited httpd.conf file including the following code: # For PHP 5 do something like this: LoadModule php5_module c:/php/php5apache2_2.dll AddType application/x-httpd-php .php # configure the path to php.ini PHPIniDir C:/php And then trying a simple phpinfo() test on it, it gives the following error. "The instruction at "0x007874cd" referenced memory at "0x00000014". The memory could not be "read"." The dumprep.exe message has the following interesting information: "szAppName: httpd.exe" "szModName: php5ts.dll" "offset: 000974cd" I'm wondering 3 things: Has this happened to anyone else when they were trying to install PHP on Apache? Is there any advice people can give me? Is there any relatively hassle free approach to manually fix this annoying problem? Thanks in advance, D.T.
