see what account is being used to run the service. It might be set up to use one that doesn't have the required privileges.

If it's getting past that there's a log directory, have a look at the latest file.

Another option might be to download WAMP, it makes sense of a lot of the install issues on windows. It will put MySQl on as well unless you tell it not to...
