I wish to install WAMP Server on my PC and then Wordpress on Apache.
I successfully installed WAMP. Launched the service to realize that phpmyadmin wasn't working. I was recieving the error mentioned in the title. So i thought of resetting the root password, flushing the privileges and then creating a database(Which i could have done via phpmyadmin).

So i reset the mysql root password. I then tried again to run phpmyadmin..DIDN'T WORK!
(I did edit the config file)

Worst part of it all is that mysql console wont work either! I get the same error! 

I am kinda new to all this...Please help1!!! :'(
