Hi,
here's a thread on a Moodle forum where someone had the same error message:

The above page makes the following recommendation:
manually installing php and setting php as an isapi filter instead of running as a CGI

Also, I tried a Google search for this error and found:

The above page has the following recommendation:
The solution is to install PHP under IIS as an ISAPI module and not as a CGI processor.

Those pages seem to be giving the same advice. Does it mean anything to you?

cheers
Gordon

The instructions on the main PHP site seem rather short:

The following instructions seem better, although they are for IIS 6

Hope that get you started anyway smile
