Check database permissions for the user. Try to login with phpMyAdmin and check which databases are available.

If your database password has the dollar sign character ($) in it then mysql_connect will fail. You either have to change the password to exclude the '$' character or in the config.php file change the double quotes to single quotes for $mysqlpass and the other database variables for that matter.

Thanks for the suggestion. That was my exact problem, so I took the $ out of the password and I was able to install.

Thanks  ;D
