Answer 2

For anyone that happens to try to create a mongodb service on Windows 8 and follows the instructions on MongoDB's website AND still is unable to create the service successfully - I've written this post that explains how I got it to work after experiencing problems trying to set the mongo service on my Windows 8 laptop. Hope it helps!
Here are the steps that you really need to follow to create a Windows service for MongoDB in Windows 8:
Installing MongoDB on Windows 8
Download and install MongoDB. You can download the 32 or 64-bit version from here.
Make sure you install MongoDB in a folder that you can easily remember, for example: c:\mongodb\
Add directories c:\mongodb\log and c:\mongodb\data
Add log file c:\mongodb\log\mongo.log
Creating a Windows service for MongoDB
Open your command window and type the following:
cd c:\mongodb\bin\mongod.exe --install --rest -master -logpath=c:\mongodb\log\mongo.log
Open the registry settings, press the Windows key and R at the same time and then type regedit in the Run command window.
Go to HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE >> SYSTEM >> CurrentControlSet >> services
Find out MongoDB directory & edit ImagePath key
Set key value as:
C:\mongodb\bin\mongod --service --rest --master --logpath=C:\mongodb\logs\mongo.log --dbpath=C:\mongodb\data
Save and exit registry editor.
Open Services by pressing the Windows key and R at the same time and then type services.msc in the Run command window and click OK.
Find the MongoDB service and right-click on it, select Properties
Make sure the service is set to start automatically and start the service as shown below.
Open your browser and go to http://localhost:28017/ to see if MongoDB is running correctly, you should see a page full of MongoDB details.

Answer 3

error message suggest you don't have admin privileges.
"Run all of the following commands in Command Prompt with “Administrative Privileges:”"

Answer 4

thanks for answer Moacy Barros but problem was not for this because i run all commands in Command Prompt with “Administrative Privileges:”" problem was for mongod.cfg if mongod.cfg config by manual in editor this problem solve that we didn't need to do this in window 7 or server 2008
Edit::
in older windows when installing MongoDB < 2.2 that i was tested. in Configure directories and files step
echo logpath="C:\Program Files\MongoDB\log\mongo.log" > "C:\Program Files\MongoDB\mongod.cfg"
it make mongod.cfg for your mongodb but it wasn't make for me in window 8 for that i make it by manual like
logpath=C:\mongodb\log\mongo.log
logappend=true
dbpath = E:\data
