You did that the worst available way.
What You should do actually, is to point PHP to right INI location.
There's some ways to do that depends on what scripting engine You using.
In Apache (both handler and filter SAPI) -

<IfModule php5_module>
php_admin_value extension_dir "C:/usr/sbin/php-5.2.2-Win32/ext"
PHPIniDir "C:/usr/sbin/php-5.2.2-Win32"
</IfModule>
