Default Installing Sql Server Express on Vista Home Premium

Hi

I have install Express on three Vista HP computers, on one everything works
fine, but on the other two my application cannot connect to the instance. Any
ideas?

Studio runs and connects to the database.
Remote connections is enabled.
The Browser service is set to automatic.
IP Connections is enabled and set to listen on all ports.

Cheers

Peter

Hi

Some other information that I think you should have:

I installed SQL Server 2008 Express on each computer
Windows Firewall is turned off
The application is a VB2005 application

Cheers

Peter
