Make sure your host has PHP 5 (rather than PHP 4).
What files would I need to backup on the database and once done do I need to reinsert those files into the database or should the files in the database carry over?
You should back up your entire database.[0] For the sake of simplicity, you should also back up the entire wiki directory. If the upgrade goes smoothly, you will not need to re-import your backup.
