You can run mongodb as a Windows service

e.g. set up as a windows service

mongod --install --serviceName "MongoDB" --dbpath C:\mongodb\data\db 
       --logpath C:\mongodb\logs\mongolog.txt --logappend

Then you can start the service from CMD using:

net start mongodb

Or, you can start it via Control Panel -> Administrative Tools -> Services. You can then just set it to start automatically on Windows start.
