MySQL on Vista server failed to start

Why is installing MySQL on Windows Vista such a bear? For someone who is not
a professional database administrator, it seems like I am jumping through hoops.

Ah, now I am getting somewhere.
It suggested I turn off the User Account Control (UAC). Which I did.
But after following these steps
There was an error at the end of the installation that said that the server failed to start.

I had a similar problem, try right clicking on the .exe icon and then 'run as administrator'.
Let me know if that helps.
