My cheat sheet says that this 1045 error means that the username/password in your default.conf doesn't match with what mysql is looking for.
I don't think this is your problem! I think the installer is not installing mysql properly on Vista. There is a how to install mysql on vista
here (that is an 11 page pdf file). I think you should uninstall mysql before trying that. Take note of the username/password you enter during the installation. After you finish the installation you will need to create an fpdb database and give permissions to it.
To make a db, open the mysql client from the start button and give it the password. Then do steps 18-20 in the
manual install process. Notice that you are giving it a username (=fpdb in the example) and a password (=minraise) in the example. You need to put that username and password in the default.conf file.
Does anybody have fpdb running on Vista? Did you have to do this stuff?
Also, if you already have PostgreSQL installed because you have HEM or PT3, then you should forget about mysql and use PostgreSQL.
