This is what I did on a windows machine: do not directly use PPM. the installer can do it for you... (I did it for ActivePerl 5.8.3 build 809 ) goto http://www.imagemagick.com/ click download button on top of page select the stable windows executable run it to install. and make sure to select the option to install PerlMagick !

It sounds really simple, and I may be suggesting a redundancy, but try opening the interactive PPM shell in a DOS session, and entering `install Image-Magick`. PPM may be smart enough to download the exact version that it likes the best and install it for you. It worked seamlessly for me in a few previous versions of ActiveState, although my most recent update was to 5.6.1.	[reply] [d/l]
