WampServer

Hello, when I click on "go online" on my server, it kicks back with this error:

Could not execute menu item (internal error)
[exception] could not perform service action:
the service has not been started

I took a look at the respective error logs, and found that mysql was spitting out this error:

Can anyone help me? I'm brand new this, and am unsure of what the log is trying tell me.

When you downloaded there was a note saying you should ensure your system had the correct 2 MSVC runtime dll's installed.
There is also a Sticky post telling you the same thing on this forum.
