PHP MapScript and unable to load dynamic library

A trick i also use to find which associated dll is missing is to try to 
do a 'mapserv -v' at the command prompt, for your 4.8 exe.  If a dll 
cannot be found a Windows error message should be displayed (such as 
"procedure entry point...cannot be found in gdal13.dll" or something 
like that).
