I'm running mySQL as part of WAMP on my Visa llaptop.   It works perfectly.
(Using it for development of websites which run on LAMP.

I use the myODBC connector to interface to Access.  I'ts real simple.
 
There is also an OLEDB connector which you can use with c#

See for example:

Using-OleDB/


You can get the connectors here:
