Do you have the database set up correctly?

Do you have mysql-nt.exe running?

Have you rebooted winmysqladmin.exe?

Paste the first few lines of your FQADMIN.INI file - should be something like this (blank out password).

Code:
[GENERAL]
DBNAME=eq
DBHOST=127.0.0.1
DBUSERNAME=YourName
DBPASSWORD=******
Also paste the contents of your my.ini file (found in C:\Windows) - PM me if you dont want to paste it here.
