title: Imagick on Windows 8 xampp
body: <p>I want to install imagick on windows 8 64bit, xampp.
  I have tried all methods in internet how to solve this problem, but none helped me ( have tried more than 10 methods ).</p>
  
  <p>In all results i get error while launching apache.</p>
  
  <ul>
  <li>Apache 2.2.21 </li>
  <li>PHP 5.3.8 </li>
  <li>Windows 8 64</li>
  </ul>
  
  <p>Latest method i have tried: <a href="http://w3facility.info/question/how-to-install-imagemagick-for-php5-35-4-on-windows-8-x64/" rel="nofollow">http://w3facility.info/question/how-to-install-imagemagick-for-php5-35-4-on-windows-8-x64/</a></p>
  
  <p>In case i change to extension=php_imagick_nts.dll error looks like:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The program can't start because php5.dll is missing...</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>In case i change to </p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <p>The program can't start because CORE_RL_wand_.dll is missing...</p>
  </blockquote>
  
  <p>Method's suggestion to copy dll's to windows/system32, didn't helped me.</p>
  
  <p>To help you and me, questions you might ask:</p>
  
  <blockquote>
    <ol>
    <li>Have you restarted xampp? Yes</li>
    <li>Have you restarted windows? Yes</li>
    <li>Have you added path? Yes</li>
    <li>Does CMD command convert gives proper answer? Yes</li>
    <li>What path you installed Imagick? C:\imagemagick</li>
    </ol>
