MySQL

[Treewyrm]

The first error was Error:2003, cannot connect locally to MySQL, then it changed to Error:1045, access denied. And now under the instance install, it clears the PRepare Configuration and Write Configuration File, but won't clear the third check, which is Start Service. (Error:0)

Do I have to do it under the actual Adminstrator user or can I do it under my normal user account that has administrator access?

No, you can do it under your normal account which has administrator privileges. Check firewall, most likely it's blocking configuration utility from connecting to server. Don't try to install MySQL over again if you already have service installed. Check Control Panel->Administrative Tools->Services. See if MySQL service is there and if it's running.
