It's been a week since first time I tried to install the script on my site and everytime I do it I get this error message:/

A fatal MySQL error was encountered.
Query: CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS`settingsfanfiction_settings` ( `sitekey` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '1', `sitename` varchar(200) NOT NULL default 'Your Site', `slogan` varchar(200) NOT NULL default 'It''s a cool site!', `url` varchar(200) NOT NULL default ' http://www.yoursite.com', `siteemail` varchar(200) NOT NULL default 'you@yoursite.com', `tableprefix` varchar(50) NOT NULL default '', `skin` varchar(50) NOT NULL default 'default', `hiddenskins` varchar(255) default '', `language` varchar(10) NOT NULL default 'en', `submissionsoff` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0', `storiespath` varchar(20) NOT NULL default 'stories', `store` varchar(5) NOT NULL default 'files', `autovalidate` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0', `coauthallowed` int(1) NOT NULL default '0', `maxwords` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `minwords` int(11) NOT NULL default '0', `imageupload` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0', `imageheight` int(11) NOT NULL default '200', `imagewidth` int(11) NOT NULL default '200', `roundrobins` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0', `allowseries` tinyint(4) NOT NULL default '2', `tinyMCE` tinyint(1) NOT NULL default '0', `allowed_tags` varchar(200) NOT NULL default '

Error: ()

Do you know what I have to change or do to install it right?

With no error listed ("ERROR()") it's hard to say what is going wrong.  Have you looked at the other postings with install errors that have that to see if any solution works for you?  Does your host allow MYISAM in MySQL?  Can you run the query manually in phpmyadmin and get it to work (use the settingstable.sql file in the docs folder)? Did you read the sticky posts at the top of this forum on what/how to post for help?  Can I ask any more questions?

This is late so maybe not helpful... but I find removing Type=MyISAM will help.
