    Thanks in advance, I have a SQL Server 2005 standard Edition installed on a Win XP Professional OS , and i want to connect a client having Win 7 home OS , but i am unable to connect to the Server , i tried all the options like Remote connections etc are enabled also but it is not connecting. I tired to check Connection through ODBC with Name Pipes options it worked but did not work with TCP/IP while in my surface area connections its ticked to connect through both Named PIPES and TCP/IP. other machines are working fine but on this PC i am unable to connect. Any suggestions. I installed SQL Express and tried to connect to that Instance on Remote PC (XP) but its not connecting even through SQL Express. :doh:

      Firewall on Win7 blocking port TCP/1433 maybe? Look in the Win7 event logs and/or the firewall logs.
