Tonyck,,

u need to go to the php.ini and see on ;extencion:::


;extension=php_mcrypt.dll
;extension=php_mhash.dll
;extension=php_mime_magic.dll
;extension=php_ming.dll
;extension=php_mssql.dll
;extension=php_mysql.dll <<<-------delete the semicolon( [extension=php_mysql.dll ]
;extension=php_oci8.dll
;extension=php_openssl.dll
;extension=php_oracle.dll

Also check on the begining

; Directory in which the loadable extensions (modules) reside.
extension_dir = "./" <---Chp/ext


mybe this will help..

If 5.0 give you to much problem use 4.4 is more acuratte.....

you

or if you have done that all ready try this

ok say you have changed php.ini-dist file to php.ini
it will be your computer that asnt done it propperly it took me all day yday to figure it out here is how you do it properly

open php.ini in your fravute editer
look at the top it mite still say php.ini-dist
go to file -> save as
to the location you want it
file name put: "php.ini" make sure you put ""

then restart and come back and tell me its working
