You'll be using the UN/PW that you assinged MySQL when you ran winmysqladmin.exe Just open up a dos command and type the following...
Code:
cd /mysql/bin
mysql -u root mysql
GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO <username>@localhost IDENTIFIED BY '<password>' WITH GRANT OPTION;
quit
Note the all caps, and also the ' (apostrophe) keys before and after your password (this IS needed)... One more thing to note, dont use the < and > keys in your UN/PW This SHOULD solve your problem..
If it doesnt open up windows explorer or mycomputer and browse to C:/windows find the file my.ini and delete it... Now browse to C:/mysql/bin (assuming you intalled mysql in default location), and run winmysqladmin.exe, and it should ask you for a new username and password, then repeat the GRANT command from above....
Hope this helps you out....
