(uhh i thought it would be sooo easy buying Vb and setting it up.... but now i just starting to get upset... if i dont get help now ill probably hire a computer guy to help... i just hope this pays off)

For future reference, something like this should go to the how-do-i forum or trouble shooting forum ;)

The problem you are encountering right now is because you don't have PHP on your home computer or the computer the screenshot was taken (btw, it's _REALLY_ hard to see, I had to squint my eyes to make out the text >_<). Don't worry though, you don't really need PHP on your home computer. Please follow steps outlined here to compelte your install process: http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/install

You are currently at the "Preparing the vBulletin Files for Upload" step, so when you go to the documentation linked above, look for "Preparing the vBulletin Files for Upload", click on it, and follow the instructions from there to continue.
