Are you using use-symbolic-links as setting in my.cnf. I got the problem
when I used it with mysqld-nt. If so delete the service and reinstall the
service with mysqld-max-nt. Otherwise delete use-symbolic-links and restart
the server. This may be the problem with the binaries but I am not sure.

I am testing mysql for merge tables and symbolic links
on NT4. But it seems not working.
First I tried doing exactly what is there in the
manual, then searched mailing list and added
use-symbolic-link in my.cnf file in C:\ directory.
Mysql recognise that there is a database but can't
read content
