Access Denied

[kc68]

I didn't get a response to the question below, and my alternative solution  
produced another error message as follows.  Rather than try to establish a  
new database, I used the Test database established when I reinstalled  
mysql.  With a csv file saved under mysql/data/test, I did a load data  
command exactly as I have done many times before and got

ERROR 1045 Access denied for user: '@localhost' (Using password: NO)
I was able to create the table and successfully issue the commands SHOW  
TABLES and DESCRIBE TABLENAME  As below mysql is installed on a pc running  
Windows 98.

Original Question:
I have mysql installed on a pc running Windows 98.  I recently had to  
reformat a partitioned c drive.  My tables were stored in a database  
called samp_db.  When I give the command "use samp_db" I get Error 1044:   
Access denied for user:  '@localhost' to database 'samp_db'  When I give  
the command create database samp_db I get the same error message, and I  
get the same when I try to create a database with another name.  How do I  
create the database (and what is this
error)?  Can I get the tables back under samp_db (I saved all mysql files  
to the d drive)?  Thanks in advance.
