Default very similar to Get2it!

Hi everyone,
my first post!
Spent the day in trying to upload first WP site using the installer.
I get the same message as Get2it, ending in line 53 a lot of times. I have tried about 10 times. Almost all the disk space is used so something is going somewhere, but the database is not being accessed or connected to the blog.
I use Internet explorer, delete databases each time and start again with new names! I see Steve gave advice to delete files, which would they be?
I would appreciate if anyone can help this brand newbie!
Thanks

Default files

Delete all the wp files and start over. I use ie also. you made sure there was no space, like in the video and also you put the trailing/ after the name again like in the video? Check the video and make sure of the above. For sure delete the sql database and start again. I just follow the video to a T and it seems to work. Give the above a try,
Steve

Default thank you

Thank you Steve. The good news is that I did it first thing this morning and it did work! The site looks OK. It is just good to know and thank you for the encouragement. I think there are a lot of unused files floating about somewhere taking up space- 20 megabytes and I haven't posted any content yet! I did delete databases but not files. It is something that is obvious when you know it but not when you are just starting. Could you explain where they are- is it somewhere on CPanel?
