This is very easy ;)

On a windows server you can add the following lines in your php.ini

extension=php_pdo.dll
extension=php_pdo_mysql.dll

On a Linux server you can compile php with the following option --with-pdo-mysql In your php.ini, add the following lines

extension=pdo.so
extension=pdo_mysql.so
