MS SQL 2005 (problem)

We have MS SQL 2005 installed on our server and we are not familiar with the functionalities. We have a client software that we are trying to install that uses the MS SQL server for it's database, unfortunately it won't install as it says the database isn't running (which it is) and / either the log in details are incorrect, which we use is the Admin user name and password.... We are looking or someone who can come on board to solve this small issue. If you have MS SQL experience, i'm sure this could be solved in 5 minutes and point out where we are going wrong. To access our server you will need to have Remote Desktop Connection installed on your PC/Laptop. If you have XP you will have it. Place your bid as we are looking to solve this as soon as possible. ## Deliverables 1) Complete and fully-functional working program(s) in executable form as well as complete source code of all work done. 2) Deliverables must be in ready-to-run condition, as follows (depending on the nature of the deliverables): a) For web sites or other server-side deliverables intended to only ever exist in one place in the Buyer's environment--Deliverables must be installed by the Seller in ready-to-run condition in the Buyer's environment. b) For all others including desktop software or software the buyer intends to distribute: A software installation package that will install the software in ready-to-run condition on the platform(s) specified in this bid request. 3) All deliverables will be considered "work made for hire" under U.S. Copyright law.
