I'd classify crashing once every 24 hours as a major problem.  It may
not be MySQL related, but if you've been running with MySQL for a while
and haven't tried switching back to SQLite lately to see if it
stabilizes, then you don't know.  And even if the problem is NOT
related to running MySQL, I'd think you'd be running with a more recent
nightly just to see if the server were better behaved.

As to the 'net start' problem...  I started running with MySQL a couple
days ago, running the latest 6.1 nightlies on Windows XP Pro.  So far
it's been perfectly stable, but I'm also seeing similar problems when
doing a 'net start' from a batch file.  If I switch back to SQLite I
don't have the problem, so I suspect it has something to do with MySQL,
but as you've noted, there's no error message displayed or logged in
Windows' even logs.  What I've done is place the 'net start SlimServer'
into a loop and keep trying until it starts.  Usually it takes 3-5
tries.

Try this batch file:

@echo off
setlocal
::
:: Restart the SlimServer service.  Try up to 10 times.
::
for /l %%i in (1,1,10) do (
:: Attempt to start the service
net start SlimServer
:: Pause 5 seconds before testing to see if the service started
ping -n 6 localhost > nul
:: Look for SlimServer in list of running services
net start | findstr /i /c:"SlimServer" > nul
:: Exit if found (success)
if %errorlevel% equ 0 goto :exitfor
)
:exitfor
