[How To] Run vBulletin On your P.C.

I'm trying to create the database. I have the screen up after clicking "Show Me". I then click the databases tab. Then after that I can't see a way to create a new database. Am I missing something? It just says

Databases Database Tables
blank box blank box

Table Columns

Table Indexes

I right click aroudn and see no create database option.

XAMPP. And winMySQL Admin for the MySQL control panel.

EDIT: I switched to phpTriad, and it works.

I copied my local folder of my site and added them all into my C:\apache\htdocs\ folder.
so the address is like this
C:\apache\htdocs\Norestrictions\
now when use the address
C:/apache/htdocs/Norestrictions/forum/forums.php
I get this (look in the attachments I've uploaded.)
I uploaded a few more pics too, hopefully they will be able to help one of you to help me. the first pic was the way my main page forums.php(my index) shows up.
the 2nd one is my site directory
3rd is showing you I added my local site folder to the correct htdocs folder (I hope thats right.)
4th is the showing that I added a ne DB called "NEWEST", thats where I added my backup sql into. is this how it should be? did I miss something? need more pics? I'm a complete noob when it comes to apache and such.

I suppose you did add the mysql as you imported the db, but can handle php files?

this may be my problem, install php and mysql on the apache server?
thisis where I may have gone wrong, considering i don't even know how to do that unless it has been explained in the first post or in this thread. How do I install those ON the apache server and how can I test or look to see if I have?

Have you configured the config.php file correctly?
