Which version of MySQL are you using?

The way MySQL hashes password has changes since MySQL 4.1. If you use 
PHPmyAdmin, you can select to store the password using the old hashing 
method, that should solve your problem. There is also a way to do this 
using MySQL directly. Some google-ing should help you out there.
