cannot start service MySQL. error:0

When installing MySQL 5.0 on Windows XP Media Edition. I get this error when using the msi.. on the part where it starts the service.
Cannot start service MySQL. Error:0
Apparently this is a pretty popular problem
As I have googled it, and came up with a lot of possible problems that seemed to help the other folks. I have the following setup:
- Windows firewall disabled (temporarily)
- Port 3306 forwarded (protocol 'both', ip 192.168.1.2 (internal ip))
- I'm logged on as the computer administrator
- No other application is using port 3306 or in that range
I've uninstalled a couple times, and made sure the service wasn't running in the service manager.
The service is being created fine, it just can't be started. What am I overlooking?
