cannot load mysql extension

I have tried to post this in php.windows but no answer. I hope some of you can help me.

I'm on a win2k platform using apache, php and MySQL.
Mysql works
PHP works fine
but when I try to use PHPMyAdminI get following message:

cannot load mysql extension;
please check PHP configuration
Documentation

PHP5 has been added to path
and php_mysql.dll has been uncommented
extension_dir =path_to_php5/etx

any ideas ?
