Every time I go into edit the board options like Board Title, Time-zone, etc. when I click save I am given this error message:
An appropriate representation of the requested resource /forum/admin_options.php could not be found on this server. Everything else saves fine, and the admin_options.php file is in the right place..
any ideas on how to fix this?

According to my google search, mod_security can cause that
I have access to phpMyAdmin, I don't if that can fix it, but from what I've read about on google is that Apache is considering it spam because when I try to save the settings it's sending to much info. Is there anything I can do from phpMyAdmin or do I have to go the host I'm using? or is there another way?
First, this has nothing to do with phpMyAdmin nor Mysql in general.
I guess your host has made the mod_security rules a bit too strict.
I am running mod_security as well and never had this problem.
That's great. because my hosting company doesn't have any support readily available.
Next question, Where would I go to edit the settings manually by changing them inside the .php files? or Where does the script write to when you click save changes under admin->options

Normally everything is saved in the table "PREFIX"config.
I figured out how I can do it, just downloaded the config.php file inside the cache directory, edit it locally, rename the one on the server, and upload the edited one with ascii transfer..problem solved

This is only safe until you get it working one day and overwrite your settings...
Better get your host to change the mod_security rules a bit
