This problem of starting services has persisted on and off for about 1.5
years now !!

On some builds I put in registry changes to make SqueezeCenter depend
on MySQL Service and it worked.

Most recent build (See subject) I was too lazy to dig up registry
changes and instead just set MySQL to manual from automatic and it
seems to work.

I'm running on XP SP3. On cold boots MYSql is stuck stopping and
SqueezeCenter is stopped.

What I suspect is happening is MySQL is in the middle of starting when
SqueezeCenter tries to connect and it boogers up. Behavior may vary
depending on the performance of the machine if tries to connect right
at the wrong time.

By setting it to Manual it synchronizes (serializes) startup.

I did several cold boots with MySQL set automatic and it would fail to
start every time. I only set MySQL to manual and tried several cold
boots and it's happy now.

I think this subtle startup issue is tripping up a lot of folks.

By running it as Desktop Application it also avoids the problem because
by the time the Desktop is started MySQL should be stable.
