Although you say that the ImageMagick folder is at the beginning of your
PATH, "Invalid Parameter" is the error message given by the Windows utility
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\CONVERT.EXE being invoked instead of ImageMagick's
CONVERT. (This Windows utility is used for converting a filesystem from
FAT32 to NTFS.) I don't think ImageMagick's CONVERT even contains that exact
string. Are you positive that the ImageMagick folder is earlier in your path
than C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32 (or %SYSTEMROOT%\SYSTEM32)?
