I'm your "Tech Psychic". You're obviously running one of those M$ productz
and trying to install your own phpBB forum, aren't you? What you want to do
is enter localhost as the host name (since you're a newbie you wouldn't be
doing distributed access) and you'll have to use WinMySQLadmin to create a
database and give it arbitrary user name and password. Then use those that
user name and password in your forum install form.
