Hmm, as I successfully installed the .dll from dev.mysql.com, I wonder what's the problem. Can you check in the output of phpinfo()

- which php.ini file gets used by PHP
- if you have put the php_mysqli.dll in the directory specified with extension_dir in the php.ini
- uncommented the ;extension=php_mysqli.dll line

So, if you're 101% sure the php.ini config is same, try loading the extension with dl(c:/full/path/to/php_mysqli.dll). If it loads fine, then it's a fault of you configuration (php.ini, locateion of the dll's, ...) that the php.ini way does not work. If it does not load properly using dl(), post OS version and error messages.
