Try importing it from your command prompt. Open Start > Run and type cmd to bring up a shell.

you may need to type the full path to mysql if you haven't altered your system path. you will have to type the full path to your file unless you switch directories in the shell first.

mysql -uusername -p databaseyouwishtoimporttogoeshere < yourfilename.sql

that will import the file to your database. As I said you may need full paths for it to work.

If that fails then you need to post the beginning of the file so we can see what it looks like.
