It's been a while since I compiled mod_ssl but on my machine the .so is named "libssl.so". The error message would seem to be indicative of a problem in the conf file, especially the invocation of mod_ssl, and not mod_ssl itself. But of course Microsoft hasn't cornered the market on uninformative error messages ;-)
Have you verified that you have both a loadmodule and addmodule directive for mod_ssl? Have you verified that indeed the mod_ssl loadable is called "mod_ssl.so" and is located where the directive says it is relative to the server root (unless it is an absolute path)?
