Any more suggestions on this topic? I'd really like to be able to recover the data from these files.
Does anyone have any tips on perhaps extracting the data from the CLOB fields in the database? That would work just as well.

I started with MySQL version 5.0.22, but upgraded to 5.0.24 due to some issues with another PHP application I'm running. This involved deleting the service, uninstalling MySQL, deleting the Program Files folder, and installing the new version. This is basically what started the whole recovery process, having to upgrade MySQL.
Mediawiki versions are the same.

Are you upgrading versions or is it the same?
This question has been posted several times before to this mailing list but unfortunately I can't remember what the solution was. Someone else on the ML probably remembers what the solution was.

I see the standard-issue "Mediawiki has been installed" page.
New instance: Copy over the code files, run the installation script creating new DB and whatnot. Import DB contents from previous database via a .SQL dump file.
