I've been trying to install apc . I've added the .dll file to the extenstions directory ( so far i'm running the application on xamppm, apache) . I've also updated the php.ini as well. The problem comes up when I restart the apache and then the next warning appears : 

php startup : unable to load dynamic library c:/xampp/php/ext/php_apc.dll

I think the problem might be the fact that the php version I employ is 5.3.8 . I've been looking for apc download for php 5.3.8 and I hadn't found any,

What am I able to do in order to solve this problem ?

Any suggestion will be helpful , thanks in advance

I had the same problem and it was because i was using x64 version of WAMP server so i downloaded the x64 version of php_apc.dll file and it worked. Here is a link

In the following site you'll be able to find the extension compiled for Windows in a variety of "flavours" ready to download:

Hint: you mention you use XAMPP, which as far as I can tell bundles PHP compiled with VC9 and thread safe, so you are probably looking for this one if you use Windows 7 or this one for other windows versions.

Side note: As somebody who has been using Apache and PHP under win heavily, I can only recommend to switch to Linux as soon as you can: PHP extensions (among many other things) are way much less of a headache there.
