Unable to load dynamic library 'e:/webserver/php/extensions/php_oci8.dll' - The specified module could not be found.

Okay, I'm running under Windows XP with Apache 1.3.27 + PHP 4.2.3 the big zip package.

The problem just is:
NO module works!
For every module I get the same error message:

Unable to load dynamic library 'e:/webserver/php/extensions/php_oci8.dll' - The specified module could not be found.

But e:/webserver/php/extensions/php_oci8.dll is the correct path -> if copied it and opended it with the windows-explorer: he can find it.

What I also have to mention:
ANY PHP_*.DLL seems to have problems!
Normally when you right-click a .dll you can get some extra information like company name, versoin, internal name, ...

but not any of the php_*.dll

BTW:
Oracle 8.1.7.0 is also installed on this machine.
Oracle works, TOra can connect to it, Oracle Desinger works, Oracle Forms works ...

I also copied many o*.dll from the Oracle\bin directory into the c:\winnt\system32 and e:\webserver\php\extensions\ directory...

Still the same error message.
