Okay I got it to work this way. And I was trying to install it on Vista x64

1. Start MySQL Server Instance Config Wizard again (after skipping the failure on activating the security settings).

2. Choose Reconfigure Instance.

3. Choose Standard Configuration.

4. Choose default Next.

Here's the the thing that worked for me at the next screen:
Modify Security Settings

Current Root Password: Leave blank empty IMPORTANT

New root password: your new password
Confirm: your new password again
Enable root access from remote machine

5. Execute and Finish
