Hey Tim

I am quite new to Koha, just two-three weeks old and had similar problems.

I found an installation instructional video at the following page.

http://www.ossrc.org.in/koha-drupal-workshop-29-30Nov-2007-resources.htm

Video link for installing on Windows XP is

http://www.ossrc.org.in/downloads/koha/video/koha-win.avi

It also has an instructional video for installing on Unix.

I hope you will be able to overcome the problem by using the above two
things...
