WAMP 2.0i phpmyadmin problem

Hi
Downloaded and installed on XP
In browser [localhost]
phpinfo() works fine
BUT om TOOLS phpmyadmin and YOUR ALIAS phpmyadmin gives an error "not able to start mysqli (extension?)

following the link gives me
1.20 I receive the error "cannot load MySQL extension, please check PHP Configuration".
To connect to a MySQL server, PHP needs a set of MySQL functions called "MySQL extension".
This extension may be part of the PHP distribution (compiled-in), otherwise it needs to be loaded
dynamically. Its name is probably mysql.so or php_mysql.dll. phpMyAdmin tried to load the extension
but failed.
Usually, the problem is solved by installing a software package called "PHP-MySQL" or something similar.

In a bundle like WAMP this should be included, but for now:
From where do I get this and where to put it??

Hope someone can help.
