I had the same problem with evaluation version
The workaround is to rename the data folder to old data in the Winxpe
program folder and resinstall the database server mssql2000 that comes with
the demo.

Hi Juan,
Also, be sure that you aren't mixing different versions of XPE. Using the
Evaluation version and the Full version together leads to weird results like
this. For example, if you are using a Full version of the database and
connecting to it with Evaluation version of the tools, you'll see the
"exclusive mode" errors. Use either the Eval version or the Full version
exclusively.
hth,
