That's misinformation; the "old" mysql extension works fine on PHP5. You are
not forced to use mysqli.
You also have to spell extension correctly, and use an equals sign, not more
underscores.
extension=php_mysql.dll
Or:
extension=php_mysqli.dll

No, don't copy things to windows/system, use the PATH environment variable.
