5.After that start "mysql" in the server folder.

well its running, i think its running. how long does this take? or maybe i should ask how long SHOULD it take before i start getting worried?

Also being a total newb, what exactly does this repack do? i saw a whole bunch of really cool YouTube stuff. does this allow all the GM goodies and such? im mostly just intrested in a emu so I can visit all the places that nobody will touch (like naxx) much less consiter. Does an Emu let you do that too?

tks for any help
If that is the MYSQL.bat file you are referring to then it will take about 3 seconds tops.
If it says MYSQL could not be started you may already have one running.
If so press Ctrl + Alt + Del then find "mysql" or something like that under the processes tab, and click end process.
Then try again

And yes this Repack (if it is like most) will let you do anything an admin can on retail WoW, goto any instance, fight any boss, use any command.

Hope this helps
