 * Hi,
 * I am new to this so be gentle!
    I have installed WordPress, filled in the relevant
   bits on the config page. Installed it as instructed along with alkl the files&
   all appears ok. Tried to log into the admin but it tells me my password isn’t
   valid. SEnt for a new password but the page comes up with; Sorry, that key does
   not appear to be valid.
 * It didn’t ask me to set a passord up at the setup as it stated WordPress was 
   already installed.
    How do I either get a password or find the one I have?
 * Regards
    Richard

 * The “Through phpMyAdmin” section of [Resetting_Your_Password](http://codex.wordpress.org/Resetting_Your_Password)
   should help you.
