I installed WAMP5 and it's running great! I've just got two questions.

1. When I first opened PHPMyAdmin I noticed it already had 3 databases:
information_schema
mysql
phpmyadmin
do I really need those or can I delete them without it cuasing any problems?

2. I want to restore a 60MB backup I have but it won't work. Can anyone give me any solutions? I tried changing the limit size and the timeout time.. but nothing.

MySQL needs the information_schema and the mysql databases. If you delete them, mysql wil l not work. Also, do not delete the phpmyadmin database, that is the database for phpmyadmin. if you delete it, phpmyadmin will not work.

user name is root, and the password is not set, so leave it empty
