I find that, when under Vista the MySQL daemon has been shut down, by giving the command start mysqld -b"%CD%" in the root directory where MySQL 5.5.8 (the version running on this computer) has been stored from an instance of command prompt with administrator authority issued by a user that lacks it (like an ordinary user s doing bare "su" in Unix) I make Vista crash with the blue-screen message "process or task critical to system operation has been terminated or exited".
The "start" is needed, also the administrator authority and the user that ordinarily lacks it. Of course, there is a Vista-bug here, but, also, surely a MySQL-bug.
