Erro phpmyadmin

[helcio]

Olá, estou desenvolvendo um sistema em php, com banco criado no phpmyadmin e tudo estava rodando e funcionando normalmente, no easyphp 17.

Decidi então colocar senha no banco de dados, alterei a senha para "teste" e na mesma hora ao tentar acessar o phpmyadmin começou a dar erro. Após algumas pesquisas alterei o aquivo config.inc.php assim:

<?php

Assim, ao acessar o phpmyadmin, apareceu a janela para digitar usuário e senha, ao digitar "root" e "teste" dá erro, ao digitar "localhost" e senha vazia ele entra mas meu banco de dados sumiu! Já havia salvo mais de 1000 registros no banco e não posso iniciar o projeto novamente e perder tudo!!
