Newbie requests help getting started

Hello
I'm starting out with XAMPP ...
Whenever I try to run the CD Collection demo, I get:
Warning: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) in C:\apachefriends\xampp\htdocs\xampp\cds.php on line 65
Could not connect to database!
Is MySQL running or did you change the password?
I've noticed that Status shows MySQL database is deactivated. Assuming this is what is preventing the demo from running, could someone please tell how to activate MsSQL?
BTW - Status also shows that SMTP Service and FTP Service are also both deactivated. Should these also be activated? In which case, could you please tell me how to do this too?
Thanks
