On windows/php systems usually in the php.ini file there are lines that
are commented out for different dll's like:

;php_mysql.dll

To use the mysql functionality you would uncomment(remove the ; ) from
that line and save the php.ini file.

I'm assuming there is such a line in your php.ini file. You would have
to make sure that you have this dll file in your php installation...such
as in:

C:\PHP\ext

If you don't then you will have to get it from PHP's website. Give that
a try.
