Time to talk to a PHP consultant instead then? ;) Look in the php.ini file and enable the MySQL extension, the entry will need un-commenting - and the path to the extensions will need setting. Unless nucleaus works with MySQLi you probably need to enable the older version. If PHP isn't running at all, it's most likely not finding the required DLLs. You can either copy them to the Windows directory (php5ts.dll + php.ini + php5apache.dll if using Apache), or configure your paths to pick-up the files where-ever you've unzipped them (C:\php perhaps?). If you are going to just install PHP once and leave it running, there is no reason why copying the DLLs into the windows directory is a "bad thing" to do, it will work and it's a locked down folder under 2003 Server re: security.
