Sorry I can't post more helpful info, but this has happened to me 
several times on different boxes with different Mambos since version 4. 
No obvious explanation, but a fresh install sometimes won't recognize 
the root pw assigned. After a whle I just accepted the fact that with 
Mambo I should never specify a pw on install, accept the random one, log 
in, and change the pw.

I was never able to fix the issue, even with a re-install, unless I went 
into MySQL and added an MD5(pw) manually.
