It seems I can install MySQL on vista no problem, but the config wizard does not finish. Attached is the screen that gives me the error.

I don't know too much about how MYSQL works, but I just need it installed so I can import some data and run a query on it in php... If there is a better way to do this I am open to ideas 🙂

(did I post this in the right section?)

Thanks!

    Don't use the installer version? Just get the zip version, unzip it, and run this command (I think) to install MySQL as a service:

    mysql -k install
