Howdy,
Ok, I figured it out. I was looking at the output of the phpinfo()
function again, and I noticed that its looking for the php.ini file
in the system root directory (C:\WinNT) not the php install
directory (C:\php). Everything is cool now. :)

Hi Roger. I'm using php/mysql/apache under Linux, but most
of this should also apply to Windows as well.
It sounds like mysql server is up and running, as you are
connecting to it OK, using the mysql client.
Try using the phpinfo() function. This will return ALOT of
usefull system information
