What color is your wampmanager icon. The one that sits in the system tray?

I assume you are entering the url into a browser and not double clicking on a file using Explorer?

If you are double clicking using Explorer, it wont work!

Enter something like this into the browser arrdress field

'localhost' (without the quotes), will run \wamp\www\index.php

'localhost/testmysql.php' (without the quotes), will run that script


PS: You have to change the testmysql.php script to change the dbuser and password values like so

<?php 
$link = mysql_connect('hostname','root',''); 
if (!$link) { 
	die('Could not connect to MySQL: ' . mysql_error()); 
} 
echo 'Connection OK'; mysql_close($link); 
?>

Assuming you have not added a password to the root userid

Have you checked the Apache error log ( Link on the wampmanager menu)
And the MySQL Error log.

And if that all fails the Windows Event log and lok for messages from Apache or MySQL.
