Mysql is really simple.. If you've got a green light, you should be able to connect to the database.
First, open up a command prompt, and cd to the c:/mysql/bin directory.
Once there, type 'mysql'
You should be in the database at this point, if you do not receive an error message, the database is up and running. If you get the mysql> prompt, you are in and connected.
Where are you getting an error, your post is rather vague.
