I have been following tutorials for the installation of Drupal on a local Windows machine, but I am unable to connect localhost when I want to create my database. I was thinking this may be because I am running Uniform Server off a usb stick, so how do I point the localhost to my usb drive to continue installation?

This is an issue with Uniform Server, not Drupal.

If you can run PHP and MySQL (or other DBs) on your server, Drupal will work. Otherwise it won't.

alright, I've changed my portable server to twamp (which already is set up for drupal :D ) and it works now. thanks.
