 Get the .zip version of the download (not the installer), it comes with many
prebuilt libraries. php_gd2.dll is one of them.

 Edit php.ini, set extension_dir to the right directory, remove the ';' comment
in front of the extension=php_gd2.dll line, stop&start webserver and you'll
have GD2 enabled.

 Check with the following short script:

<?php phpinfo(); ?>

 This dumps lots of configuration information, including loaded extensions.
