Results suggest database corrupted; how to deal with it?

Hi All,

I'm running MySQL 5.0.15-nt running over WinXP-Pro/SP2. The following
group of commands and responses suggests to me that my installation of
MySQL is corrupted. Is there anyway I can get rid of the offending
database "depot_test" short of un/reinstalling MySQL?

Thanks in Advance,
Richard

mysql> use depot_test;
Database changed
mysql> alter table products rename xxx;
ERROR 1146 (42S02): Table 'depot_test.products' doesn't exist
mysql> show tables
-> ;

mysql> drop table products;

mysql>

I forgot to mention that I first tried to drop the database:

mysql> drop database depot_test;
ERROR 1051 (42S02): Unknown table 'products'
mysql>

That's what got me started on trying to remove the products table from
the database.

OK, I found the databases in the data folder of my MySQL installation
and deleted them with Windows Explorer command. My system seems
healthy now.
