help with install and startup mysql

I cant get mysql to run on my winXP computer. I have downloaded it and
installed , unzipped and run setup.exe and placed it in c:\mysql.
I type the command to start the mysql server
c:\mysql\bin\mysqld --console

It opens the console and then the console shows some inoDB commands and the
console hangs.

I followed the mysql manual and i cant find the answer
there is no command prompt and nothing...how do I run mysql?
