Hello,
         I just ran into some problems with the mysql setup on win2000.  I 
start mysql as a service.  If you go into your control 
panel->administrative tools->services, you can start mysql.

One more thing (if you didn't see it a couple days ago when I posted it):
If you have problems inserting/deleting when you start mysql as a service, 
here is the fix that I use.

In the administrative tools->services control panel.  Select the mysql 
service, right click, and select properties.  Select the "Log On" 
tab.  Select Log on as: This account (and select the account you are logged 
in as using the browse button).

Hope this helps,
         Brent
