Hi. A couple of things. 1 - You didn't get the output right for php -n -i | find /i "extension build". You can a -m output. 2 - What command gave the error regarding msvcr71.dll? 3 - The extensions that have been enabled by the INI file are ... curl exif gd gettext imap mbstring mssql mysql mysqli openssl PDO pdo_mysql pdo_sqlite soap tidy xmlwriter zip If you are sure you are going to use mySQL, MS SQL _AND_ sqlite as well as the PDO versions of mysql and sqlite then fine, but if not, turn them off. Especially the mssql one as this really isn't going to help you in the long run (the library that php_mssql.dll depends on is very old and no longer maintained by MS and has "issues".). Use the SQL Native Client driver with either ODBC (php_odbc is already built in) or the new MS SQL driver for PHP (http://www.codeplex.com/SQLSRVPHP).
