ok, great! I chaged the text editor I was using and sure enough, it loaded the \wp-admin\install.php file.
Now, it seems to have a common problem that I read earlier. There is a lot of code on the page, and seemingly random text. I cant make heads or tails of it.
It says:
wp-config.php file. I need this before we can get started. Says this on the first line.
It also say, “You appear to have already installed WordPress. To reinstall please clear your old database tables first.”

Thanks for the support guys. I’m glad I picked wordpress for this kind of support.

heh, MS-Word 2003. I dont see why that matters, but maybe you can elaborate.

so right you are. I have already changed it. However, I still need the question answered.

here is my config file:
Maybe you can tell me whats going on.
=========================================================
<?php
// ** MySQL settings ** //
define(‘DB_NAME’, ‘wordpress’); // The name of the database
define(‘DB_USER’, ‘root’); // Your MySQL username
define(‘DB_PASSWORD’, ‘descentor’); // …and password
define(‘DB_HOST’, ‘localhost’); // 99% chance you won’t need to change this value

// Change the prefix if you want to have multiple blogs in a single database.
$table_prefix = ‘wp_’; // example: ‘wp_’ or ‘b2’ or ‘mylogin_’

// 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’, ”);

/* Stop editing */

define(‘ABSPATH’, dirname(__FILE__).”);
require_once(ABSPATH.’wp-settings.php’);
?>
