You have started the mysql commandline client with anonymous user, who has no privilege on the database.

Open a Windows CLI, and start mysql as root from there

Start | Run "cmd"

Then cd to the mysql install\bin directory
-- Use your install folder. Mine is here.

cd C:\Program Files\Mysql\MySQL Server 5.6\bin
Start MySQL command line

mysql -uroot -p

Input root's password when requested. If you didn't set a root password when you installed MySQL, just press enter.

Now you can create a database.

Good luck,
Barry.
