WAMP MySQL service does not start

MySQL service simply does not start for an unknown reason.
I don't remember changing anything specifically.
Apache runs fine. I'm on windows 7 x64.
Most interestingly, mysql.exe runs just fine. No password is on. mysqld.exe doesn't run
(running it through console will just cause an infinite delay)

my.ini file is pasted here: [pastebin.com]

What I've tried

*Turning off Firewall
*Checking port 3306 to be open
*Checking running services for other instances of MySQL
*Checking for other installed versions of MySQL
*Changing password in my.ini
*Running wampserver as administrator
*Disabling SQL Server services
*Uncommenting 'skip-networking' option
*Switching my computer's networking mode to DMZ (just in case if router firewall issue)
*Googling and trying every other suggested solution
*Re-installing wampserver
*Restarting PC
*Suicide attempt (regretted the last moment)...
I don't know what to do anymore. Anyone has a solution?
