Hello Barry:

Thanks for the reply. I tried your tips but it didn't work for me. I reinstalled MySQL. I ran a php test script to connect 'test' database, it seemed worked.

But in windows command prompt I typed in 'mysql -u password -d', it tells me mysql is not recognized as internal or external command.

I removed old mysqld window service using 'admin> sc delete MySQL' in command prompt. But I didn't reboot the sytem before install the msi package

here is the link I followed to remove old mysql window service: http://jonathanhui.com/mysql-installation-windows


I am not sure if the restallation really worked. Please give me some advises to check if Mysql is installed correctly. Thanks!
