i installed with no sa account created.. hence i am not able to use the installation. so i need to redo the install. i click on 'repair' but that did not give me an option to again create the sa account. which option in the install menu will give me the full option to create the sa or a windows account?<br />
<br />
also is it recommended to uninstall first (from control panel) - is that helpful?
