If you're that convainced you entered the right mySQL info during the installation procedure, perhaps you should contact your web hosting service in order to gather these information so that you could enter your account properly the next times. ;)

In the mean time, this error message you're currently having is also covered in the FAQ.

Only your webhost can answer this question.
Your first three "must do" before you ask a question:
Please do not PM me asking for help unless you've been specifically asked to do so. Such PMs will be deleted without answer. (forum rule #6)
