[QUOTE="HTPCSourcer, post: 1135887, member: 74879"] s That's true for SQLExpress 2008, however, you installed SQLExpress 2012 where the default password is [B][FONT=Verdana]Password123[/FONT][/B]. SQLExpress 2012 will probably not allow you to delete the password and leave it blank. In any case you would need to install the management studio to do so (not a big deal). Changing the password at MediaPortal level is not that easy. I am not aware of another method than to uninstall and then reinstall by selecting "Perform an Advanced Installation" instead of "One click installation". After the SQL-Server selection screen, you can enter the password for "sa" user. You may still encounter connection issues because of the missing mixed mode (Windows authentification but SQL authentification required). Because of this I would recommend that you download and install the SQL Management Studio, check the existing sa account, activate mixed mode and set the pasword to the MePo default "MediaPortal".
