[QUOTE="craigparris1, post: 387795, member: 75254"] Hi clarkey, Fromaron is probably right - if the previous databases are still there, then trying to create a new database will fail. Although, you have said that you did an uninstall, then re-install, of SQL, so if that is actually the case, you should haven't have had old databases still there. Anyway, first task is to download and install SQL Server Express Management Studio (via the link I provided earlier). Management Studio doesn't get installed by default with SQL Server Express Edition - you have to download and install it separately. Once you've done that, you'll need to log on to the SQL Server, through Management Studio, and verify what databases current exist on the server. You should also check the Tv-Server logs - I'm not sure if the configuration utility logs details of database-related errors, but it's worth checking. Otherwise the actual Windows event logs may have some pointers. Cheers, Craig [/QUOTE]
