Dude i know i have 64 bits -.- and i have try whit 32 also

I get the same thing when I tried to make a sub-server.

Uninstall it and reinstall.

If reinstall won't help, try to run MySQL while in services.msc (to get there simply press Run in Accessories and type services.msc).

Uninstalling didn't help, but Icap''s idea did.

Try install xampp pack 1.7.1

I haven't used XAMPP, but I've used several methods for a localhost. I've installed the manual Apache 2.2, PHP 5.x, and MySQL 5.1. I find WAMP to be the easiest method to be honest.
