Ok

As an example your username is demo and the database and username is lol, and the password is lmfao

1. Create database lol in cPanel
2. Create the user lol in cPanel with the password lmfao
3. Grant access to lol using the box with all permission
4. In phpBB2 installer, type in demo_lol for the username, lmfao ar the password and demo_lol as the database.
5. Fill in other info and hit next..and the rest is strait forward.

I can do this for you for 25 points.

Yes, make sure you tag your username to the beginning of your database names and user names. In my case, for example, I must enter cynicmwm_user for the user, and cynicmwm_db for the database.
