All you need to do is to click on the WAMP server icon in the system tray and go to mySQL and my.ini. Open the file in a text editor like notepad. At the top of the page there should be a line
socket = /tmp/mysql.sock
change that to
socket = c:/tmp/mysql.sock
Save the file and try running phpmyAdmin. Restart wamp. It should work perfectly.
If this does not fix the error for you let me know and I will try and help.
