Indeed, this fixed my problem too!
1. Install the ImageMagick with "static libraries" anywhere on your system.
2. Try to run ImageMagick directly from command line, e.g.:

convert C:\temp\test.jpg -resize 120 C:\temp\test_b.jpg‍

3. specify the path + exe to your ImageMagick-installation in alfresco-global.properties

img.root=<YourImageMagickInstallationDirectory>
img.exe=${img.root}/convert‍‍

and restart Alfresco.
