When you installed mysql did you install the client library and put it in your PATH variable? Do a search on your machine for libmysql.dll - make sure you have a copy of it somewhere, and make sure php can find it! This means if you're using apache that you'll need to add wherever libmysql.dll is to your PATH variable.
