i looked to see if there is a wiki page for compiling, but i didn't find anything. any thoughts?

Eeek! Sounds like maybe your mysql install is corrupted or something. I compiled and ran it last night. I'm having some issues in PoK, but other than that it seemed to work just fine. I'm using VS Express 20008. There is a wiki on compiling under windows and it seems to give good guidance.

I used the original DEV kit from this post to compile mine:

but the current link uses VC++2008 Express.
