 * Okay, I’m installing wordpress. But I have a problem with step 5. (5. Launch /
   wp-admin/install.php in your browser. This should setup the tables needed for
   your blog. If there is an error, double check your wp-config.php file, and try
   again. If it fails again, please go to the support forums with as much data as
   you can gather. ) This is the message that appears: “Already Installed
 * You appear to have already installed WordPress. To reinstall please clear your
   old database tables first. “
    But I don’t. I don’t have ANYTHING uploaded to 
   my site except my wordpress stuff. Please help!

 * This does not deal with what you uploaded but with your SQL tables instead. Try
   changeing it from wp_ to something else in your wp-config file.
