...subject says it all.  What can I do?

I had to change my SQL database password.  I don't want to re-install and lose all the pictures I had up.  I'm getting this error:

Coppermine critical error:
Unable to connect to database !

MySQL said: Access denied for user 'rump888'@'localhost.localdomain' (using password: YES)


(my database username is "rump888")

Thanks!..

Change sql sa password by using command prompt
Open a command prompt (Start -> Run -> cmd)
Type the follow commands, and press Enter after each line.
Osql –S yourservername –E
1>EXEC sp_password NULL, 'yourpassword', 'sa'
2>GO
The yourservername is the name of your server, yourpassword is the new sql sa password.
Other ways to reset sa password.
