Hi there,
It sounds like 1 of 2 problems
1) The installer is not picking up a database i,e MYSQL. Did you use WAMP to set up your Apache, Php and MYSQL? It could be that you have stopped the MYSQL service, so PHP is working as well as Apache, but it cant pick up a MYSQL database
2) Sometimes when you get the 'Access denied for user 'root'@'localhost' (using password: NO) ' error it means that you are attempting to access MYSQL with a password, but that MYSQL has no password on record for user 'root'. In that case do the silverstripe installation without filling in a password for the Database, or else set a Database password using phpMyAdmin
Let me know if it helps
