You know what is even more screwed up now. I did this command and when it prompted me for the password I just hit enter and wallah look what I got. But I am sure there is other stuff messed up now:
C:\MySQL\bin>mysql -u root -p Enter password: ********** ERROR 1045 (28000): Access denied for user: 'root'@'localhost' (Using password: YES) C:\MySQL\bin>mysql -u root -p Enter password: Welcome to the MySQL monitor. Commands end with ; or \g. Your MySQL connection id is 4 to server version: 5.0.0-alpha-max-debug-log Type 'help;' or '\h' for help. Type '\c' to clear the buffer. mysql> Chris L.
