FAQ: I am having trouble configuring a graphics toolkit (ImageMagick, NetPBM or ffmpeg). Help?
But unless you have shell access to the server your best bet is to install NetPBM.

I'm trying to install imagemagik. I downloded ImageMagick-6.5.9-Q16 for Windows NT. After installing it I just can have the display. How should I work? This is the first time for me to use an Open source software.
I have also installed visual office.
Could someone tell me something more?
Thank you

I don't think many people here use or know about Windows NT, so it's unlikely that you'll get much help. Who knows...

I've only ever played with Gallery on Windows using XAMPP and never tried to get an external binary working. But if I were to do so, here's what I'd do.

Install to a path that's short, sweet and without spaces, example: c:\imagemagick

Set the PATH environment variable to include that path. If you're truly using NT, I don't recall how to do that, it's probably similar to Win2K/XP, but I know it's not exactly the same. Right-click My Computer > Advanced (tab) > Environment Variables

If you're using IIS, make sure what ever user that IIS runs as has read/execute permissions to that directory and all files. For testing, I'd probably just give everyone FULL access to make sure you can get it working. Really the same for Apache here too.

If your running on a shared Windows server, that's where my help stops, sorry. If you're not an administrator on Windows, there's not a lot you can do without getting your host involved in my experience.
