Company just gave me an old desktop Windows 7 system for development, already has all sorts of stuff installed including SQL 2014, but there's something wrong with the local instance, I can't connect to it. I can stop and start it from the configuration manager, but cannot connect to it from the studio, rejects my windows authentication - and SA with no password didn't work either. Apparently whoever had it before me, did something to it.
So not sure what my options are, decided to just nuke it and reinstall. But I went to the control panel and program widget, and there are about six different SQL 2014 items. Is there just one that takes the others with it?
Thanks,
Josh
