Try this...

1. Go to phpMyAdmin, then locate the Privileges option. Locate the root user and edit the settings and change password. Then proceed to step 2.

2. Locate the config.inc file for my phpMyAdmin, the location can vary. The file will be located in the phpmyadmin folder, so you need to find this.
For example mine is located here: C:\wamp\apps\phpmyadmin2.11.5


3. Locate this line within the config.inc file:
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = ''; // MySQL password

and add in any password, example below.
$cfg['Servers'][$i]['password'] = 'mypassword'; // MySQL password
