it reads that you can use mysql client, as you get the specific err message.
It's not much a matter of client imho, but maybe the server is not running properly.
Is server running on same machine ?
If not, use -h yourhostname when connecting
If it is, try 'telnet 127.0.0.1 3306'
if no DB server running, you'll get a connection failed, host unreachable on port 3306 (sorry, that's french)
[code]
E:\>telnet 127.0.0.1 3306
Connexion
