Hope this helps:

First some background, I just upgraded from WAMP5 to WAMP Server 2. I also reinstalled the latest version of MySQL Administrator. I too got the error messages described when trying to run the program. Under WAMP5, the solution was simple. Just needed to add the following to the my.ini file:
[mysqld]
port=3306

My WAMP Server 2 install had the same symptoms but a different resolution:
Open MySQL Administrator. If you hold down the "Ctrl" key, the "Cancel" button turns into a "Skip" button. Click the skip button. Then click the "Configure Service" tab. If any of the text boxes have red letters in them, there's where your problem lies . . .the file path and name are not valid. In my case, the "Config filename" text box needed to change to the path of the my.ini file. This did the trick for me.
