| John Scott writes "I was infected by the Cblade.worm and successfully removed it but somehow i am now unable to login to my server. I previously didn't have a password for my 'sa' login, but now its seems as if there is because i can only start the server but not log in.Is there anyway to reset the password to blank or to something else without connecting to the server? Or perhaps is there a way to backup without logining in so i can reinstall without losing my data?" |

| To reset the sa password, you will need to log into SQL Server with a windows authentication account that has administrative privileges on the server. |
