一、下载MySQL
http://www.mysql.org/downloads 我下载的是mysql-noinstall-5.0.67-win32.zip二、安装过程
 1、解压缩 mysql-noinstall-5.0.67-win32.zip 到一个C盘，重新命名为 MySQL5 。
      假定MYSQL_HOME=C: MySQL5  2、编辑mysql的运行配置文件my.ini，如果没有，可以拿my-medium.ini复制然后更名成 my.ini 
代码如下：

# Example MySQL config file for medium systems.  
#  
# This is for a system with little memory (32M - 64M) where MySQL plays  
# an important part, or systems up to 128M where MySQL is used together with  
# other programs (such as a web server)  
#  
# You can copy this file to  
# /etc/my.cnf to set global options,  
# mysql-data-dir/my.cnf to set server-specific options (in this  
# installation this directory is C:mysqldata) or  
# ~/.my.cnf to set user-specific options.  
#  
# In this file, you can use all long options that a program supports.  
# If you want to know which options a program supports, run the program  
# with the "--help" option.  

# The following options will be passed to all MySQL clients  
[client]  
#password   = your_password 
port        = 3306 
socket      = /tmp/mysql.sock  

# Here follows entries for some specific programs  

# The MySQL server  
[mysqld]  
basedir = "C:MySQL5" 
datadir = "C:MySQL5data" 
default-character-set=utf8 

port        = 3306 
socket      = /tmp/mysql.sock  
skip-locking  
key_buffer = 16M 
max_allowed_packet = 1M 
table_cache = 64 
sort_buffer_size = 512K 
net_buffer_length = 8K 
read_buffer_size = 256K 
read_rnd_buffer_size = 512K 
myisam_sort_buffer_size = 8M 

# Don't listen on a TCP/IP port at all. This can be a security enhancement,  
# if all processes that need to connect to mysqld run on the same host.  
# All interaction with mysqld must be made via Unix sockets or named pipes.  
# Note that using this option without enabling named pipes on Windows  
# (via the "enable-named-pipe" option) will render mysqld useless!  
#   
#skip-networking  

# Disable Federated by default  
skip-federated  

# Replication Master Server (default)  
# binary logging is required for replication  
log-bin=mysql-bin  

# required unique id between 1 and 2^32 - 1  
# defaults to 1 if master-host is not set  
# but will not function as a master if omitted  
server-id   = 1 

# Replication Slave (comment out master section to use this)  
#  
# To configure this host as a replication slave, you can choose between  
# two methods :  
#  
# 1) Use the CHANGE MASTER TO command (fully described in our manual) -  
#    the syntax is:  
#  
#    CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST=host, MASTER_PORT=port,  
#    MASTER_USER=user, MASTER_PASSWORD=password ;  
#  
#    where you replace host, user, password by quoted strings and  
#    port by the master's port number (3306 by default).  
#  
#    Example:  
#  
#    CHANGE MASTER TO MASTER_HOST='125.564.12.1', MASTER_PORT=3306,  
#    MASTER_USER='joe', MASTER_PASSWORD='secret';  
#  
# OR  
#  
# 2) Set the variables below. However, in case you choose this method, then  
#    start replication for the first time (even unsuccessfully, for example  
#    if you mistyped the password in master-password and the slave fails to  
#    connect), the slave will create a master.info file, and any later  
#    change in this file to the variables' values below will be ignored and  
#    overridden by the content of the master.info file, unless you shutdown  
#    the slave server, delete master.info and restart the slaver server.  
#    For that reason, you may want to leave the lines below untouched  
#    (commented) and instead use CHANGE MASTER TO (see above)  
#  
# required unique id between 2 and 2^32 - 1  
# (and different from the master)  
# defaults to 2 if master-host is set  
# but will not function as a slave if omitted  
#server-id       = 2 
#  
# The replication master for this slave - required  
#master-host     =   hostname 
#  
# The username the slave will use for authentication when connecting  
# to the master - required  
#master-user     =   username 
#  
# The password the slave will authenticate with when connecting to  
# the master - required  
#master-password =   password 
#  
# The port the master is listening on.  
# optional - defaults to 3306  
#master-port     =  port 
#  
# binary logging - not required for slaves, but recommended  
#log-bin=mysql-bin  

# Point the following paths to different dedicated disks  
#tmpdir     = /tmp/       
#log-update     = /path-to-dedicated-directory/hostname  

# Uncomment the following if you are using BDB tables  
#bdb_cache_size = 4M 
#bdb_max_lock = 10000 

# Uncomment the following if you are using InnoDB tables  
#innodb_data_home_dir = C:mysqldata/  
#innodb_data_file_path = ibdata1:10M:autoextend  
#innodb_log_group_home_dir = C:mysqldata/  
#innodb_log_arch_dir = C:mysqldata/  
# You can set .._buffer_pool_size up to 50 - 80 %

#innodb_buffer_pool_size = 16M 
#innodb_additional_mem_pool_size = 2M 
# Set .._log_file_size to 25 % of buffer pool size

[client]
# 设置mysql客户端的字符集

3、安装mysql服务
从MS-DOS窗口进入目录E:myservermysql-5.0.37-win32bin，运行如下命令：
mysqld --install mysql --defaults-file=C:MySQL5my.ini
4、启动mysql数据库
还在上面的命令窗口里面，输入命令：net start mysql
这样就启动了mysql 服务。
5、停止服务
执行 net stop mysql 即可 6、删除服务
执行mysqld --remove mysql 即可
7、修改密码
以上安装完毕之后，默认的root用户密码为空的。为了安全起见，需要设置一个root用户的密码。代码如下：

STRONGSPAN style="COLOR: #ffffff" style="COLOR: #ffffff"C:cd MySQL5  

C:MySQL5cd bin  

C:MySQL5binmysql -uroot -p  
Enter password:  
Welcome to the MySQL monitor.  Commands end with ; or g.  
Your MySQL connection id is 3  
Server version: 5.0.67-community-log MySQL Community Edition (GPL)  

Type 'help;' or 'h' for help. Type 'c' to clear the buffer.
