When should I run mysqld ? I've tried everything , the PC loads something , then is ready to continue - there is no mysqld.exe running in the Task Manager

The traffic light remains red - I dont understand this at all :( I can usually bring up a server no problem at all

<Edit>

Here is my "log" of what cmd shows

<winmysqladmin loads up  - red traffic light. I click start this service. The traffic light flashes green! Then turns to red.>


C:\mySQL\bin>mysql
