Well, of course it doesn't! All refreshing the FNDB does is to tell
your TeX installation about the existence and the location of new
files. It has nothing at all to do with any TeX *editor*.

BEFORE you write your source file, you have to set up your editor to
know where the executable files are that you will be running on your
source files.
The executable files are: musixflx.exe, pmxab.exe (for PMX),
prepmx.exe (for M-Tx). For each of these files, you need to set up
your editor to know where they are.
As you say you can now open WinTeX2000, why don't you try following
the instructions I posted on 15 November? If you go through that
procedure for each of musixflx.exe, pmxab.exe, and prepmx.exe, you
should then be all set up to compile your MusixTeX files.
(You may need to do the same thing for tex.exe too, incidentally; I
can't remember whether WinTeX2000 comes preconfigured for TeX as well
as for LaTeX. And you shouldn't use LaTeX for MusixTeX purposes.)
