I have faced the same problem which took me a very long time to solve.
Here are the steps I did hoping it will help you:
1- Install Mysql on d drive and not under c drive. That was clearly stated.
2- In your command line, stop at mysql "cd d:\mysql"
3- mysql>bin\mysqld-shareware --basedire d:\mysql
Directly, you can open you application using Mysql and see if it work
