MySQL service is not running on XAMPP
===

I used to have a MYSQL server installed on my computer but then I uninstalled it and reinstalled it and now I have two services one called 'MYSQL' and the other called 'MYSQL4'. 'MYSQL' (the service) does not start because I uninstalled that and 'MYSQL4' starts but when I click start on the MYSQL service on XAMPP, it uses the 'mysql' service and not the 'mysql4' service. This means that it gives me the message ERROR: MySql service not started [-1].

Could somebody pleaseee help me, I really want to change the settings on XAMPP so that it uses the 'MYSQL4' service not the old one.
Thank you in advance
