I have installed sql server 2005 (x64) on a Windows Server 2008 R2. I am unable to connect to the local database instance on the local server console. I can only connect to integration instance, no other option are available locally. I can connect to the instances from a remote system.
I have applied sql sp3 and visual studio sp1 to the server?
any ideas?

Can you post the error that you get when you try and connect to the local instance?

Don't actually get an error message. When I click to browse local server no list appears. If I manually add server I can connect.

so there isn't an error. You can connect to the local server via SSMS.

Yes I can connect if a manually add the server\instance in, normally you can click <browse> and a list of local instances is generated.
