BTW, most webhosts will give you a control panel along with phpmyadmin, the control panel is where you'll need to create new databases.

Also, using PHPMyAdmin to import a large backup, you'll likely lag out, you should use command line tools.

As for the blank screen, edit includes/config.inc.php and update all paths and url's.
