Yes.
Well I was having this problem and what fixed it for me was:-
1. Start MySQL Administrator.... but DO NOT LOGIN.
2. On the Administrator login page press and hold the CTRL key. The Cancel button changes into a "Skip"
button, press that.
3. Once in you get a reduced set of options on the left, click the "Service Control" option on the left and the "Configure Service" tab.
In the "configuration file" section on this page see if your "Config Filename" field is RED, if it is its in error.
4. Change it to the correct path to your my.ini file which will be something like D:\wamp\bin\mysql5.1.30\my.ini
5. Exit and restart MySQL Administrator.
It then all worked beautifully for me. Hope it does fo you!!
