ok when you click on WinMySQLAdmin.exe in the bin folder, it tells you to enter a username and password (make one up), then after mysql is running (shows a little go light in the lower right corner of your screen), click START (lower left toolbar on your computer) > RUN > BROWSE... (look for mysql.exe, its in the bin folder next to winmysqladmin.exe), after it gives you the prompt code, type in -u root at the end of the prompt. Then click ENTER.

EXAMPLE: c:/mysql/bin/mysql.exe -u root
(CLICK ENTER)

Then type in

use eq;

GRANT ALL PRIVILEGES ON *.* TO Username@localhost IDENTIFIED BY 'Password' WITH GRANT OPTION;

REPLACE...
Username = your mysql username you typed in before
Password = your mysql password you typed in before
