OK. Do you have the script installed? You have to go through a setup page to complete the install of the script. _________________ Andy (AbyssUnderground) (previously The Inquisitor)

Search the forum for MySQL and install it. Then you will be able to install the forum.
Visit www.trustabyss.com for a tutorial on setting it up. _________________ Andy (AbyssUnderground) (previously The Inquisitor)
