We had to reinstall SQL on our Dev box. We kept the datafiles and re-attached them to the new installed sql. Problem is that the Logins are not there, and it will not let you recreate them and attach them to the Databases because it thinks they are already there. HELP!
 
Logins are stored in master..syslogins. The related user information is stored in sysusers in each database. It sounds like you have some broken users/logins. Check the following link for information about fixing broken logins and users.
