I ran through the installation and got this

The tables are all set.

Done.
Let's see if we can save images in the folder images:

» Images folder is writable, which is a good thing.

Let's see if we can save thumbnails in the folder thumbnails:

» Thumbnails folder is writable

But now whenever I try to post images I get this error

Warning: move_uploaded_file(/cgi-bin/images/20050717100443_barn far.jpg): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mackoftheday.com\cgi-bin\admin\index.php on line 417

Warning: move_uploaded_file(): Unable to move 'C:\WINDOWS\Temp\php833.tmp' to '/cgi-bin/images/20050717100443_barn far.jpg' in C:\Inetpub\vhosts\mackoftheday.com\cgi-bin\admin\index.php on line 417
Error
Upload went without error.

And my under my general info I get this

Guessed imagepath: /cgi-bin/images/

Configured Imagepath /cgi-bin/images/

Image Directory: Does Not Exist (should be /cgi-bin/images) - Thumbnails folder not writable!
You must set correct permissions on this folder or you will not be able to create any thumbnails.
Set the folder to chmod 777 (read, write and execute permissions for owner, group and world).

Thumbnails Directory: Does Not Exist (should be /cgi-bin/thumbnails) -

Language Directory: Does Not Exist (should be /cgi-bin/language)

Addons Directory: Does Not Exist (should be /cgi-bin/addons)

Includes Directory: Does Not Exist (should be /cgi-bin/includes)

Templates Directory: Does Not Exist (should be /cgi-bin/templates)

So I'm not exactly sure where to go from here

tell us more about the server, the PHP version, the MYSQL-version, please

are you installing at your local PC, or on a server with Windows IIS?

I just miss my cristal ball :cry:

I tried setting the imagepath to .../images/ as you said, no luck.

Where should the php.ini be located or is it something my host is going to have to do?

../images/ not .../images/

about the php.ini ask your host admin. they do it for you. in windows NT it usually inside windows main path.
