    first idea, change u r SQLyog username / password. can be get from your game server .conf file.

    if .conf file conn. user name is diff from root, and you only want a connect with root user, try to reconfigure your mysql server.
    if you do it a standart setup dir. for mysql server, try go to --> "C:\Program Files\MySQL\MySQL Server 5.0\bin\" and run this file -> "MySQLInstanceConfig.exe" and reconfigure your server :=)

    note : maybe lost your dd xD

    I've had this problem a few times before it usually means your username and password in your .CONF file aren't correct to the username and password you set when you configured Mysql after installation also this can arrise when trying to connect to your Sqlyog database.
