I installed the version three days ago...I found some problems with some functions, so I decided to delete all the files in my web directory and put them online again. All the installation is ok, until I have to install the tables. I choose the automatic installation, 'cause I'm not able to install them in the manual way, and then this is what appears on the next page:

A fatal MySQL error was encountered.
Query: CREATE TABLE `fanfiction_authorfields` ( `field_id` int(11) NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT, `field_type` tinyint(4) NOT NULL default '0', `field_name` varchar(30) NOT NULL default ' ', `field_title` varchar(255) NOT NULL default ' ', `field_options` text, `field_code_in` text, `field_code_out` text, `field_on` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0', PRIMARY KEY (`field_id`) ) TYPE=MyISAM;
Error: (1050) Table 'fanfiction_authorfields' already exists

what should I do?

Ps: sorry for my english, I'm italian and I'm not very able to explain these technical things in an another language :P:P

You didn't delete the tables from the previous install.  You need to delete them to be able to run the install again.
