Apache->Php->MySql(GD,ZLib,LIBJPEG,LIBPNG)

Greetings all, I am pretty much still a virgin on PHP. :-) I have just started to learn about all the features and am migrating from java servlets. To make things easier on myself i have sucessfully installed Apache,MySql and PHP on my Win2k system without any problems. (after 4 hours of work and 9 re-starts.) PHP is running as a module under Apache. Heres my problem, I need to install GD,ZLIB,LIBJPEG and LIBPNG to work with php but dont know how to do so and the help/readme files are just to complicated for my brain. (I have downloaded all these files already) I know for some of you PHP gurus that you must be holding your stomach and laughing, please wipe those tears of laughter and take 2 minutes to help me as god will then allot brownie points to you and you MAY reach heaven eventually. :-) ANY help appreciated,but please note that i dont know Unix/Linux and will be working only on win2k. Thank you in advance, Cheers, -Ryan
