Hi guys!
I installed mysql at the new win2000 installation. I have done this before, but this time, i don't know what's wrong with my.ini or some other file, i can't use mysql with user "root" with password i set while installation. Getting this error message
error 1045: you can not login for root@localhost for password 'yes'
I even manually set my password for user "root" in table "user", but no success.
Does anyone have any idea, what to do?

"manually" setting the password will definitely not work, MySql passwords are encrypted in the user table. So you have probably made sure your chances of logging in are now non-existent.

Uninstall it, manually remove any folders left behind and reinstall would be your best bet.
