So, I can't find GLOBALS.php anywhere in my forum's directory, nor the adm/ directory, it's as if it just kind of disappeared. Is there any way I can rectify this problem, or am I going to have to do a fresh reinstall?
If, mayhaps, worse comes to worst, is there any way I can keep the data that was on my old forum, or am I pretty much S.O.L?

I am just a newbie so with reservations of error: If I were you I would do an SQL dump on the database and make backup copies of the folders that contain messages, private messages and attachments.
I think the folders you need are the following:
DATA_ROOT/thm/your_theme_name
DATA_ROOT/files/
DATA_ROOT/messages/
To run a MYSQLdump in a linux enviroment you enter the following
mysqldump --password=yourpass --user=username databasename > backup.sql
After you have done this, install FUDforum again, same version that you are currently running, make sure its working after the install.
Import the database
mysql --password=yourpass --user=username databasename < backup.sql
Copy and replace the files from the backup files.
Run consistency checker, mysql optimizer when asked after the consitency checker. Rebuild the theme. Run an upgradescript to 2.7.7.
Adjust your theme to 2.7.7

The problem is caused by the fact you have 2.7.7 templates but 2.7.6 translation file. The simplest fix could be to replace your msg file with the one from the 2.7.7 version.

The password for the forum DB can be found inside GLOBALS.php, which you can find inside the forum's include/ directory. If you change it there, it will change as far as the forum is concerned.
As far as running on MySQL v5, yes it will run.
