Default SQL Server 2005 Express Edition


We have a custom windows application developped in .net 2.0 using SQL Server
Express Edition as backend. We have installed this in XP OS and Vista
Ultimate OS. In both cases, application working smoothly. But when we tried
this in Vista Home Basic edition, after installation system shows a message
"Cannot open database <database name> requested by the login. Login failed.
Login failes for the user <systemname/username>".

I was trying to connect using windows authentication method.

Any idea to solve this issue. Early reply appreciated. Thanks.

Upgrade Vista Home Basic to Vista Business or Ultimate and it will work.
