GD and other DLL extensions under Win32 (PHP4/Apache/Win9x)

Hi, Even after reading some of the previous threads regarding this issue, I'm still having problems enabling the gd (and other) dll extensions in the php.ini file. I am running Win98, PHP4.0.0, Zend v0.98 and Apache 1.3.12 (win32) and I have downloaded the dlls from http://download.swwwing.com/php4/modules/ My initial php.ini settings are: extension_dir = ./ ; the default extension=php_gd.dll The error I am getting when I run php.exe -i > info.htm at the DOS prompt is: "PHP Fatal error: Unable to load dynamic library 'php_gd.dll'<br> A device attached to the system is not functioning. in Unknown on line 0" I've attempted commenting out the "extension_dir=" entry and use the full path name to the dll, ie. extension=d:\\php4\\php_gd.dll, but PHP crashes and causes 2 fatal exception errors: fatal exception 0E occurred at 0028:C02A60FD in VXD IFSMGR(04) + 00007811 ... and ... fatal exception 0D occurred at 0246:015F47FB ... Hoewever, (with extension_dir commented out and) if the full path supplied is d:\php4\php_gd.dll or d:/php4/php_gd.dll, PHP says "...unable to load dynamic library...". The strange thing is...if I try to enable the php_crypt.dll (or php_mcrpyt.dll) library using the default php.ini settings, PHP says: "PHP Warning: Invalid library (maybe not a PHP library) 'php_crypt.dll' in Unknown on line 0" And if I enable the php_ldap.dll or php_calendar.dll (which come with the PHP4Win32 binary distribution), php -i > info.htm returns with no errors. But the php_calendar.dll from download.swwwing.com throws up a... "PHP Fatal error: Unable to load dynamic library 'php_calendar.dll'<br> A device attached to the system is not functioning. in Unknown on line 0" Any help would be appreciated. Ignatius
