configuring php.ini for mysql

I'm trying to install phpmyadmin on windows. I get the dreaded The mysql extension is missing. Please check your PHP configuration.

I've looked for hours, and every fix I find causes apache to not start again. Here are my version informations.

phpMyAdmin 3.4.10

MySQL5.5

PHP Version 5.2.17

Apache 2.2.21

Windows XP

I'm at wits' end.

In php.ini you must be missing this

    ;extension=php_exif.dll      ; Must be after mbstring as it depends on it
    extension=php_mysql.dll
    extension=php_mysqli.dll
    ;extension=php_oci8.dll    

Note the un-semicoloned lines.

There are some good tutorials as well
