[FONT=Lucida Sans Unicode][SIZE=1]Is it me or my host [MySQL]

Ok I have been trying to install a certin forum. But every time I instert my MySQL details and try to complete the installation I recive a error saying that access is denied for user root@localhost.

I know this is a password or username problem but I have checked and run this install about 15 times now…

Is it me or my host?

Help is appreachiated! 😉

Thank you 🙂 🙂
