I am using a very old MySQL because it came with a radio server I have, WinMySQLAdmin 1.4. I am a beginner when it comes to php and mysql. I have installed a program called EasyPHPServer installed today but am not sure how to get it to run cause port 80 is occupied as well as the old version of MySQL is still running. I have tried a new version but do not know how to access the databases.

OK then, probably it's too old to run the "SET NAMES utf8" command. Upgrade your MySQL server and try again.
