Hi cdalelife,
You may have not realized this but if your host has cpanel then you don't need to manually download, configure and upload the wordpress files. It does all that for you. If I were you I'd delete everything off your server and start over.
Just login to the hostgator control panel and click "Fantastico De luxe". This will walk you through the entire process and even create your database. The only thing you have to do is create your username and password for the WordPress admin panel.
