Your port 80 is actually used by :

Information not available (might be Skype).
Cannot install the Apache service, please stop this application and try again.

IIS and Apache/Wamp are both web server and might conflict in some way, so you have to disable IIS in order for Wamp to work

Disable IIS in Vista/Win7:

Control Panel, Uninstall Programs, Turn Widows Features On or Off, uncheck Internet Information Services

Disable IIS in XP:

Control Panel, Add/Remove Programs, Add/Remove Windows Components, uncheck Internet Information Services (IIS)

Restart computer, then restart Wamp

Also, open file hosts in folder C:\WINDOWS\System32\drivers\etc and make sure you have only this line and nothing else

127.0.0.1 localhost

also, if susing skype then open skype... tools>options>connection>advanced> untick "use port 80"

Got past that part

When i run PHPADMIN, i get the following error message:

How do i reset my root password?

Error

MySQL said: Documentation
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.

I tried to follow the guidelines but i cannot get the PHPMYADMIN menus to follow the SETUP steps.


Welcome to phpMyAdmin

Error

MySQL said: Documentation
#1045 - Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO)
phpMyAdmin tried to connect to the MySQL server, and the server rejected the connection. You should check the host, username and password in your configuration and make sure that they correspond to the information given by the administrator of the MySQL server.

So how do i get to the PHPMYADMIN menu to fix the password?

Yes i downloaded resetmysql and substituted the 3 files after copying the old ones to a backup location.

Confirming that there is nothing between the single quotes in the .php file. Still see the above message.

What else can i try.

I got everything working except the fact that the email() command in the php script does not work.

this is the code on line 21:
email('bhaven111@yahoo.com', $subject, $msg, 'From: ' . $email);

this is the error:
Fatal error: Call to undefined function email() in C:\wamp\www\submit.php on line 21
