Comment on Tutorial : Parent: child process exited with status 3221225477 -- Restarting By Emiley J.
3221225477 is C0000005 in hex notation, which is just the good old general protection fault, caught by the windows kernel.

In other words: Apache itself, some Apace module or any of the DLLs used by Apache or its modules crashed. Probably because of some faulty C code using an invalid pointer.

An inadequate version of libmysql.dll in the system32 folder (or elswhere in the path) *could* indeed be the cause, and replacing it with the one from the php folder could be a solution.

Just be aware there are plenty of other possible causes for the quoted error message, so the original post is really somewhat misleading.
