I am trying to install MySQL on WinXP, I get the following error message:

Microsoft(R) Windows DOS
(C)Copyright Microsoft Corp 1990-2001.

C:\DOCUME~1\BEN>cd c:\mysql\bin

C:\MYSQL\BIN>mysqld--standalone
'MYSQLD--STANDALONE' is not recognized as an internal or external command,
operable program or batch file.

C:\MYSQL\BIN>mysqladmin create testDB
MYSQLADMIN: connect to server at 'localhost' failed
error: 'Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)'
Check that mysqld is running on localhost and that the port is 3306.
You can check this by doing 'telnet localhost 3306'

Can anyone help?  Please. 

Thanks, 

Ben
