Maze's suggestion about uninstalling, deleting all data, and reinstalling isn't a bad one. This would also clear out your old password data for the root password too, since that's stored in the database itself that is maintained in the Program Data folder. However, please also note that the location for the database data files may be somewhere other than the location he gave. If you can't find it at C:\Program Data\MySQL, then check your my.ini file (before you uninstall) and look for the datadir value. I beleive the default on Windows 7 is C:\Users\<usename>\AppData\Roaming\MySQL.
Another option, instead of installing regular MySQL as instructed by the guide, you could download and install XAMPP instead (or a similar all-in-one web server package utility, there are a few). If you want that to work correctly, it would be best to completely uninstall MySQL and remove the MySQL data files as Maze suggested, so it isn't a bad idea to stick with regular MySQL for now.
As for the configuration wizard not responding, keep in mind that windows has a screwy idea of what "not responding" actually means. I cannot tell you how many times I've had windows flag a program as "Not Responding", but the program is still using varrying levels of CPU resources, memory usage for the program keeps changing, and if left alone the program eventually finishes whatever it was doing and continues on happily as though nothing was ever wrong. The reason being... nothing was ever wrong. Windows just can be idiotic about it sometimes. Try deleting out your MySQL data files, at the Program Data or AppData directory, or wherever the my.ini file says it is (and if you still have trouble finding it, then do a search in windows explorer or whatever file explorer program you use for a folder named "MySQL" and it should be the one that is *not* the program installation directory), then fully uninstall MySQL (if the uninstaller says it has stopped responding, just wait for a few minutes or even up to 10, and failing that consider trying Revo Uninstaller to uninstall it), then try installing again.
As for the dependencies that you're looking for, keep in mind that the second version of the guide still has some considerable formatting issues (as warned at the top of the guide). Immediately under where it says "6. unzip the dependencies" it tells you to download the dependencies, but the section of text is unindented and the link is non-functional there. Try instead going back to the other version of the guide at eqemulator.net (the one Kingly_Krab linked to, the same one that is the first one I linked to) and go to step 3.1 "Install some other required files" and you should find the link you need for that download.
So get those dependencies, and unzip them as the guide says to, and assuming you've gotten MySQL installed then try CMake again and see if you still get errors. If you still have problems, then come back and we can work from there.
Good Luck,
Drake Phoenix
