When I go to impex, it auto starts loading phpBB2, and not giving me the choice to choose MyBB, which is the software I'm trying to convert from. any idea why?

Almost defiantly because there was an import done previously from phpBB and the session is still active?

Ensure that the previous import is finished, if there is one :

http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/impex_multi_import

by removing the import ids.

Then delete the session.

I take it this isn't a clean import or is it ?

Hmm. The last import I did was literally this time last year, when I first got vBulletin. (which was from phpBB2)

I've now done this cleaning, and it now works, thanks alot!

Ensure you finalise the first import, take a back up then do the second, just in case :)
