Might be worth getting someone to connect in using Jaws tandem?
Just to check the config and / or reinstall.

Subject: [Blind-sysadmins] Can't connect to new installation of SQL
Express
Sent by: "Blind-sysadmins"
Hi folks,
I'm back at this old chestnut.
I've just installed SQL Express, but can't connect to the server.
The Server is installed locally on my Win 7 box.
When I launch SQL Management and am prompted for a server to connect to,
I type ".\SQLEXPRESS" and get,
"A network-related or instance-specific error occurred while
establishing a connection to SQL Server. The server was not found or was
not accessible. Verify that the instance name is correct and that SQL
Server is configured to allow remote connections. (provider: SQL Network
Interfaces, error: 26 - Error Locating Server/Instance Specified)
(Microsoft SQL Server)"
I need to connect to the server so I can change or enter a new password.
Any thoughts?
Cheers,
Barry.
