I had SQL Server working without a problem on my laptop until I changed the identification name of my laptop to make it more recognisable when I connect to a LAN. However, since I've changed my laptops name, my local SQL Server service wont run and I cant connect to my local databases. I can connect to remote SQL Servers though. If I change my laptops name back to what it was before, it still doesnt work. This has happened in the past and the only way I could solve the problem then was to uninstall SQL Server 7, remove all registry keys referring to it then reinstall it. I dont want to do all that again so....HELP!!!???! I'd really appreciate any help anyone could give me.
