Hey, guys! I have followed the instructions here; http://docs.moodle.org/en/Installing_MSSQL_for_PHP

to try to get Moodle 1.8.x, PHP5.2.9, Xampp and SQL2005 working on a Windows Vista. I have not yet installed Moodle because I get the following error:


Error: Database connection failed.

It is possible that the database is overloaded or otherwise not running properly.

The site administrator should also check that the database details have been correctly specified in config.php


how can i fix? Any one can help!

Thanks in advance
