ImageMagick on WAMP and Windows 7

    I am having problems installing ImageMagick as a PHP extension for PHP in WAMP on Windows 7. ImageMagick itself works properly every time as I install it on my C drive but I can't get it to work with WAMP. No matter what I do I keep getting this error message:

    PHP Startup: Unable to load dynamic library ‘c: / wamp/bin/php/php5.3.4/ext/php_imagick.dll’ – 1% n \ x92est not a valid Win32 application

    It's the usual Windows problems - not knowing what dlls and executables to use.

    All binaries can be found here:
    http://image_magick.veidrodis.com/image_magick/binaries/

    I have tried several different combinations. The latest one being ImageMagick-6.5.8-7-Q16-windows-dll.exe with the latest TS dll from here:

    http://valokuva.org/builds/

    I also tried their most recent binaries for Windows:

    http://www.imagemagick.org/script/binary-releases.php

    My system specifications are as follows:

    Windows 7, 64-bit
    Apache 2.2.17
    PHP 5.3.4

    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    Ok, so now it works with the older installation mentioned above. I think I forgot the environment variable and / or restart properly when I tried the combination earlier.

    My antivirus software had an issue with ImageMagicks montage.exe though even if it could not confirm any apparent risk. Is this normal?
