Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

[rs51]

hi
when i thought i had it all ok (see thread thread436-671800 i was entering mysql command line and i repeatedly get this message:
Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)
i tried several commands but everything seems ok.

C:\>mysql\bin\mysqlshow
mysql\bin\mysqlshow: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061)

C:\>mysql\bin\mysqld --install
The service already exists!
The current server installed: C:\mysql\bin\mysqld-nt

Hos can i solve this?
thanks
