Thanks for response.

I tried looking at that link but is uses 64bit versions, and I am running
32bit.
I tried using the zip version of php, as per that tutorial, and after a lot
of messing about with php.ini managed to load some pdo dlls, but the
pdo_firebird.dll refuses to load.

What version of php are you using on windows?
