You asked two questions.

Your First Question:
You installed SQL Server 2005, and then you logged into SQL Server using Windows Authentication, it went through, No issues. Good.
But When you used SQL Server Authentication to log in , you received an error.

Suggestion:instead of saying, you received error, next time you write a question, please mention that error message, so it will be easy for us to identify issue.

Solution: I am guessing, SQL Server instance is only configured for Windows Authentication but not for SQL Server Authentication,

From Books Online :
To change security authentication mode

1. In SQL Server Management Studio Object Explorer, right-click the server, and then click Properties.
2. On the Security page, under Server authentication, select Mixed authentication mode, and then click OK.
3. In the SQL Server Management Studio dialog box, click OK, to acknowledge the need to restart SQL Server

This will require you to restart your SQL server, make sure you don’t mess up your production.

Your Second Question:
After Database Server crashed, you restarted SQL Server, and you see your database is in Suspected Mode, how to bring this database online.

Solution: My suggestion would be to restore database from recently taken backup.

Meanwhile you can check these options also,

i have a question if u dont mind to post it … it’s about
windows authentications , administrator , sp_grandlogin
————————————————————————–
the book is talk about if we have an account with name (loli)
and we want this account to access sql server , and the computer name is ( Arena ) , we can use this statement in query analyzer
EXEC sp_grantlogin ‘ARENA\loli’
then will apear the message is (Granted login access to ‘ARENA\loli’)
then it said log out from ur account and sign in loli account , run query analyzer and write the number of computer fron of the sql server name and choose windows authentication
then press OK
the result is accessed sql server
————————————————————————–

just maybe some hint needed

How can I debug sql stored procedure in sql server mgmnt studio express.

Please help

When i run select statements on the Adventure works database, it gives an error saying that the ‘Invalid Column name’

On closer look i noticed that because it was case- sensitive it has given me an error.

But i never heard that SQL is case- sensitive. Im really surprised by what i have found.

Is there anyway i can correct this..really astonished.

I visisted ur side but i didn’t find Query Analyzer in Sql server 2005 v. so pls. provide me help file with which i can install sql server 2005. in my single system. pls. operate me or send me any information..

thanx
