When you created the account, did you grant it sysadmin?

Have you tried logging in with the sa account? Or any other account that has sysadmin?

If you have SA password then Connect thru SA and grant windows login to SA permission and your are safe to go with your windows login.

mdubey has done this several times before. I think he just wants to bump his postcount.
