| Start -> run -> services.msc. then, look for the service SQL Server. Whatever it says in brackets is the instance name; except that if it says MSSQLSERVER then that is the default instance.Start->compter,right click and properties. It should tell you ther server name.To connect use servername\instancename, except, if it is default instance, use only the server name. |
