Default setting up winmysql

ok have winME ,1g processor and 512 ram. i have don all the way to this(1. Current EQEmu version (check the site http://www.eqemu.net)
2. MySQL (We will be using MySQL 3.23 in this readme http://www.mysql.com/downloads/mysql-3.23.html)
Important: Make sure you download the correct version of MySQL for your Operating System (i.e. If your on windows, download the windows zip file).
3. A Semi Working Brain

Now we will be splitting up the Installation process into 3 Parts.

Part 1 ( Extracting EQEmu ):

1. Unzip EQEmu to a directory of choice ( we will be using C:\EQEmu\ in this example | http://www.winzip.com )

2. Copy "spells_en.txt" from your EverQuest directory to C:\EQEmu\ ( or wherever you uncompressed EQEmu too)

Part 2 ( Installing MySQL ):

1. Install MySQL ( not difficult like installing any program )
Reboot may be required

2. Copy db.sql (found in C:\EQEmu ) to your MySQL bin directory ( C:\mysql\bin by default )

3. From the MySQL bin directory run/open "Winmysqladmin.exe"
It will ask you for a username / password ( Choose a username / password that you will be able to remember)
Do not give the password out to anyone for any reason because with this,
anyone can log into your mySQL database and change your data.
)
now im to putting in my eq file under the databases. by selecting the database cat. then right clicking to creat. but all i have under the tab is flush host,flush logs,flush tables, flush threads.

i have under my datbase tab is as follows(
xxxxxxxxxxxx.net (xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx)
mysql
test

is what i should have or should i make the create the datebase EQ like it says here.(NOTE: If it does not ask you to enter a username/password or you wish to change it,
delete the file c:\windows\my.ini and re-run Winmysqladmin.exe.

4. Now from "Winmysqladmin.exe" select the Database tab and right click the area for Databases and click Create Database.
Type in "eq" as the database name (without the quotes) and click Create database
)

im at a lost have no idea what to do now
