n00b Help with Beginning SQL for ASP.NET App

I am using a pre-built package of code for my site, which is called
EasyDisc. All it does is it creates an interactive forum on your site, like
any forum you see anywhere.
I am having a problem getting started as I am new to .NET and sql. The app,
once unzipped, tells me to "Make note of your SQL server name, username,
password, database name. You need to supply these info. later."
My problem is I don't know where to find out that info. Are they assuming I
have a pre-built db? I have Access of course, do I find the info there?
I know this is a n00b question, so I am confident I'll be getting a swift
reply

Thanking you in advance

the app is assuing you have a MS SQL server setup/installed.
if you don't you may not be able to use that app.
