Hi,
I am running mysql 5.0.15-nt on winXP. I have a database with default
character set utf8 and some tables which are mostly empty. I want to drop
this database, but whenever I try that, mysql server crashes. Even trying to
drop a table in this DB crashes. I tried creating and deleting another
database with same tables and I am able to drop that.

How to I force delete this database so that I can create it again?

Thanks
