Try this out:

1. Download the copy of the win32 PHP (not the installer one) from php.net (whichever php version that you want running on your webserver).

2. Then from the dll folder, copy these two files: libeay32.dll and ssleay32.dll to your Windows/System32 (whichever Windows you have).

3. And then from the extensions folder: get your php_curl.dll and place it under your /php/extensions folder.

4. Check your php.ini to ensure it's referring to the correct extension folder, for example:

   extension_dir = "./extensions/"
   

   And uncomment your extension to php_curl.dll for example:

   extension=php_curl.dll
   

5. Restart Apache

Thanks. Hope it works for you.
