Did you create the database? If you didn't create one, go to http://localhost/phpmyadmin and look at this pic...

Click new in the upper left hand corner. Type your name in the Database Name Field. Hit Create. If you're on xampp, your settings are almost definitely...
localhost for hostname (if that doesn't work, put 127.0.0.1)
root for username
leave password blank
database name is whatever you called your database that you created.
Let me know if you're still having problems. We'll get you through this.
