The tables prefix field allows you to control table names. Many people have only one database and thus face restrictions on what they name their tables. If two desired apps have a "users" table, the user is SOL unless he's able to change the table name. PHPBB allows you to control the table names. Their "users" table will be "phpbb_users" if you leave the default or "monkey_users" if you put "monkey_" in the blank. Just go with the default.

Your second picture appears to me to be the same as the first. Did you upload the same one twice by accident?

Ok so i will just leave it at default. Thanks. Now the next problem is not being able to login to PHPmyadmin to modify databases or even connect to mysql database from phpbb for that matter. THe attached picture shows the message i get. I tried to logon throught cmd prompt and it says the same message about the password. I did set a password in phpmyadmin but now it will not let me login and it doesnt even give me a place to put the password in. Can i edit config.inc? if so, how do i do that?

Thankyou

P.S. yes i accidentally attached the same pic two times...The new one is attached.
