We need more details in order to help: What operating system are you on? Which version of MySQL are you attempting to run? How are you attempting to start the MySQL server? Has it worked before or is this a new installation? What errors are being reported to your error log? The default location of the error logs is <mysql installation folder/data/*.err
We would love to help but your message is just not specific enough.
