Keep getting this error message:
Step 2) Connect to the database
Attempting to attach to database
Error description: mysql_connect() [function.mysql-connect]: Can't connect to MySQL server on 'localhost' (10061) E:\web\public_html\andrewc07\forums\includes\class _core.php on line 273
The database has failed to connect because you do not have permission to connect to the server. Please confirm the values entered in the 'includes/config.php' file.
However, my database server is not called localhost and mysql2.loosefoot.com. How do i get vBullitin to look at the relevant database.

Tells you there really. In includes/config.php you need to change this line:
$config['MasterServer']['servername'] = 'localhost';

Line 273 contains the following code:
$link = $this->functions[$usepconnect ? 'pconnect' : 'connect']("$servername:$port", $username, $password);
