Enable the mbstring extension in your php.ini and this error will disappear. 
Please use the php-install, php-general or php-windows mailing list for further 
support questions.

Error seems corrected.
message from xampp: 'mbstring extension already loaded' when enabling 'mbstring.dll' extension.

This outputs another message:
'browscap.ini' in 'php/extra' already missing.

Copied file from 5.4.14 and now it works fine.
Thanks
