Answer 1

These are step by step instructions on how to get ImageMagick running under PHP in a Windows environment. Apache does not provide binaries for Windows and relies upon several sources to do so:
XAMPP
WampServer
Apache Lounge
Bitnami
Apache Haus
It is recommended to download either the XAMPP or WampServer distributions as they are complete packages that contain Apache HTTP server, PHP and MySql known and tested to work together.
Making ImageMagick work was not easy for me. It took two days of trial and error to get this to work. Hopefully this will help you get up and running faster. I have this running on the following:
Windows 7 Home Edition 64-bit
XAMPP 5.6.3
Apache HTTP 2.4.10 (Win32), VC 11
PHP 5.6.3 x86 VC 11, Thread safe
Thus, a 32-bit web framework compiled with VC 11 and thread safety enabled all running on 64-bit Windows 7. You must choose a 32-bit ImageMagick DLL distribution along with a 32-bit VC11 thread safe DLL wrapper to match.
The instructions below should work equally well with WampServer as there is no dependency on the Windows web framework.
The important thing to understand here is that you must know your web server environment and what components are installed and built with. you must match bitness, Visual C runtime, and thread safety configurations together.
Step #1: Install imageMagick to C:\ImageMagick
Go to Link and download the latest release. Use the 32 bit DLL version (ImageMagick-6.9.0.0-Q16-x86-dll.exe)
Install it into C:\ImageMagick directory
Step #2: Get the PHP wrapper from the Windows PECL repository
Go to http://pecl.php.net/package/imagick
Get the latest stable version, 3.1.2. You want the 32-bit, VC 11, thread safe version
php_imagick-3.1.2-5.6-ts-vc11-x86.zip
Step #3: Create distribution directory
Create a /php/ext/imagemagick directory
Copy the ZIP into it and unzip it
Step #4: Make backup copy of DLLs
Make a C:\ImageMagick\Backup directory
Copy DLLs in the C:\ImageMagick directory to the C:\ImageMagick\Backup directory
Step #5: Overwrite DLLs
This is the most important step that if you don't do, will result in the PHP wrapper not loading correctly:
Take all the DLL files in \php\ext\ImageMagick and overwrite those in C:\ImageMagick
If you do a SET on the DOS command line you will see that the ImageMagick installer had created a entry into the system variable environment path (i.e. to C:\ImageMagick). Supporting DLLs will be picked up from there and they will be the Pecl Windows repository DLLs, not the distribution.
Step #6: Set module extension in PHP.INI
First, copy the php extension wrapper php_imagick.dll into the /php/ext directory. Then modify the PHP.INI to do this:
extension=php_imagick.dll
Step #7: Reboot Apache
Reboot Apache
Go to phpinfo and see that imagick is installed as a module.
Here's where you can learn more about your environment.
Pay attention to stuff in phpinfo like:
Compiler: MSVC11 (Visual C++ 2012)
Architecture: x86 (32 bit; as opposed to x64 which is 64 bit)
Thread safety: enabled (TS)
Apache Environment Configuration (PATH should have C:\ImageMagick included)
