Not reading the php.ini file

I have php 4.3.3 on my local IIS5.1 server (XP) in ISAPI mode. It all works
ok except that it does not seem to be reading the php.ini file as any
changes I make are not shown up when doing a phpinfo(). This shows the ini
path as c:\windows\php.ini. This is where it is and it is the only php.ini
on the machine. I have tried stopping and starting the service but this does
not help.
Any advice on why it does not seem to be being parsed?

I'm afraid I'm on a Linux platform using Apache but one thing I would try is
place the php.ini file in the same directory as your php.exe and see what
that does for you.

Thanks for your helpful comment, however, it did bot cure the problem. I
found that by doing a shutdown and restart of IIS that it then read the ini
file.
