Installation problems

Many apologies for posting an installation problem that has probably been tackled hundreds of times. But I could not find anything relevant to it while searching these supportforums.

My problem is when I call the wp-admin/install.php. It generates the following information (minus the password info of course):

<?php
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define('DB_NAME', 'fwblog06'); // The name of the database
define('DB_USER', 'fwblog06'); // Your MySQL username
define('DB_PASSWORD', '****'); // ...and password
define('DB_HOST', 'localhost'); // 99% chance you won't need to change this value
// You can have multiple installations in one database if you give each a unique prefix
$table_prefix = 'wp_'; // Only numbers, letters, and underscores please!
// Change this to localize WordPress. A corresponding MO file for the
// chosen language must be installed to wp-includes/languages.
// For example, install de.mo to wp-includes/languages and set WPLANG to 'de'
// to enable German language support.
define ('WPLANG', '');
/* That's all, stop editing! Happy blogging. */
define('ABSPATH', dirname(__FILE__).'/');
require_once(ABSPATH.'wp-settings.php');
?>

Warning: main(ABSPATH/wp-admin/admin-functions.php): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in c:domainsflibweb.nlwwwrootblogwp-adminupgrade-functions.php on line 3

Fatal error: main(): Failed opening required 'ABSPATH/wp-admin/admin-functions.php' (include_path='.;C:PHPpear') in c:domainsflibweb.nlwwwrootblogwp-adminupgrade-functions.php on line 3

The first thing I thought was missing or corrupted files, so I’ve downloaded both the Zipfile and Tarball from the download page and uploaded them to my host (Sohosted.com). But unfortunately both produce the same error. So I think we can pretty much rule out as a cause.

I’m rather new to all this business, so I’m stumped on what it could possibly be.

Any help would be appreciated.

Regards,
