I am having an issue getting this installed....i have PHP installed on a windows server 2003 machine along with MySQL they r botht the latest versions. when i go and try to install it says...

The installer was unable to detect MySQL support in PHP. Please ask your host to ensure that PHP was compiled with MySQL, or that the proper extension is being loaded.

Did you follow my recommendations I posted in your other thread?  You don't have your server properly configured.

Please don't double post, use the edit button.

There is nothing in your phpinfo about mysql.

You have to load the MySQL extension in php5, it isn't loaded by default. A search on google for "php 5" mysql extension will no doubt turn up what you are after.

Did you compile PHP with --with-mysql=/DIRECTORY/WHERE/MYSQL/IS

I don't know if that works for windows. I know I had to do it to get it to run with Debian.
