did you mean launch? not lunch? are you talking about the /install portion launches perfect?? You need to click the green WAMP icon in the bottom right and click phpmyadmin while on the server. also, if you want to access it externally you need to hit "put online" in that menu from the tray icon..

once you launch phpmyadmin you can create a database and a user and password with full permissions to that database, use localhost as the server and input the database name and credentials and it should go well provided that you your WAMP is working correctly.

also if you end up using this WAMP server as production I have a batch script that will backup your database and what not.

You need to setup database first - open file "readme.html" in browser (http://localhost/hesk/readme.html) and follow instructions under "Install HESK"
