Hello, This is a classical problem ... when you install mysql into an other path than c:/mysql/ , you remove it and reinstall into an other directory. At first you must verify the my.ini file into c:/winnt/ . If mysql has been installed into an other directory than c:/mysql/ you can verify basedir and datadir paths in c:/winnt/my.ini file. If mysql is installed in c:/mysql/ , c:/winnt/my.ini must be deleted.
After that, in a command schell type: cd "your mysql directory" cd bin mysqld-nt --remove mysqld-nt --install NET START mysql" and now everything should be OK.
