Your answer is here I think: http://dev.mysql.com/doc/refman/5.1/en/windows-installation.html

Also - to download an installer : http://dev.mysql.com/downloads/installer/5.6.html ( get that 191.5M one :) )

thanks, I tried installing that link and ran into errors ...It eats an hour of time atleast installing/uninstalling bc the server wouldnt start. I'll wait till Monday...Enjoy Weekend.
