3. Save the downloaded file, mysql-5.0.2-alpha-win.zip, to the temp folder, \temp, on your hard disk.
4. Unzip \temp\mysql-5.0.2-alpha-win.zip to "\temp\mysql" directory, and double click on "\temp\mysql\setup.exe" to start the installation process.
5. Select the customized installation option, and change the installation target directory to \local\mysql. Then continue the installation as instructed on the installation window.
6. When asked to configure the database server, select the standard configuration, and uncheck the "Install As Windows Service" checkbox. Then finish the configuration as instructed.
7. Open a command window and run "\local\mysql\bin\mysqld" to start MySQL server:
C:\herong>\local\mysql\bin\mysqld --console 22:25:21 InnoDB: Started; log sequence number 0 43634 ready for connections. Version: '5.0.2-alpha' socket: '' port: 3306 Source distribution
