  Hello,

  I heave tried to register new server in Sql Server 2008, using SQL Authentication. The registration works but I cannot start it, pause or stop. All the options are disabled. Neither testing for new server registration works.

  Waiting for response,

  Kujtim

  Is the SQL Server service started? Check Windows Services (Start/Run/services.msc) for MSSQLSERVER or MSSQL$SQLEXPRESS.

  Yes it is started, also the SQL browser. I think this is a bug.

  Did you try starting it from Services (services.msc)?

  and also give more details about the version/edition of SQL Server 2008
