Mysql should show up - one piece of information that I DON'T see that is probably the most important - is your php.ini being loaded? You should see a section in the top of your phpinfo() page telling you where it's looking for php.ini, and which one is being loaded. If you're using apache the easiest way to MAKE SURE you're getting the right php.ini discovered and used is to place the following in your httpd.conf file PHPIniDir "C:\php\" and restart your server - if you've altered your PATH recently might be smart to reboot your machine - windows can be a bit flakey. > Is there something I am missing?
