I'm reinstalling VS.NET on my new machine. To my surprise almost everything has gone according to plan thus far except for getting this pesky SQL Server to work. It's been a while since I first installed Studio, but I remember having the default databases (master, model, et cetera) installed without having to do anything. During my previous installtion of Studio, those databases didn't get installed. Were they supposed to? Plus, when I create an instance of SQL server so as to create a database, the instance gets created but I can't access it (that stupid red X icon wont go away). I've tried every kind of authentication, and none work.
I was curious if that might something to do with those default databases for some reason not being installed and if so, how can I get them going? I don't see why they weren't installed. I don't recall doing anything different on this install than the last one, but who knows...
thanks in advance..Never mind. Finally got everything in working order.
