Installed, but can't get past first page

I installed XAMPP on my Windows XP machine, then OpenEMR on top of that. I went through the setup.php process. The last step says:

======================================================================================
The initial OpenEMR user is "admin" and the password is "pass". You should change this password!

Click here to start using OpenEMR.

I click that link and get a login page that asks for Username and Password.

I have tried:
  admin/pass
  the SERVER login and password that I entered when I set it up
  the CLIENT root and password that I entered when I set it up

Now I’m all out of usernames and passwords. What do I do? How do I get in?

Did you change the "initial user" name?

Try:

your "initial user"

and

pass

Did you go into /openemr/interface/globals.php and change these variables appropriately for your system?

   42 $webserver_root = "/mnt/htdocs/openemr";
   48 $web_root = "/openemr";

I’m not sure what you mean by “initial user”.

When I ran setup.php it asked for the following:

SERVER
  host  … I left it ‘localhost’
  port  … I left it ‘3306’
  db    … I left it ‘openemr’
  login … I left it ‘openemr’
  password … I entered ‘openemr1’
CLIENT
  host  … I left it ‘localhost’
  root  … I left it ‘root’
  password … I left it blank
USER
  user  … I entered ‘paul’
  name  … I entered ‘Paul D Alder’
  group … I entered ‘Alder Family Chiropractic’

I added the following line to globals.php:
  $webserver_root = "d:/xampp/htdocs/openemr"
This is the directory that contains the OpenEMR stuff.

These are the Username/Password I’ve tried with interface/login_screen.php:
  admin/pass (as suggested in the last step of setup.php)
  openemr/openemr1
  root/(blank)
  paul/(blank)
  myXPuserid/myXPpassword
