You can help us help you by providing a title which briefly states the problem. Hardly anyone overhere reads all posts. Most scan for title to see if they see anything that fits their specific expertise. I title saying "please, help", is not very helpful in that selection process.

As for your problem, I encourage you to read the documentation on installation on Drupal. Maybe you should start reading the "Installation Guide" (http://drupal.org/getting-started/install), and specifically the "Local server setup" page (http://drupal.org/node/157602).

If anything in there is not clear or something does not work, come back and ask a specific question. For example: step n failed, I received the error message bla, bla. Or I do not understand what is meant with the remark "whatever".

Good luck,
Mark

Drupal needs a database. It needs to be built with mysql.
I would try using 1and1. They give you a free 30 days to try their host.
