Couple of things to check

Are you typing the server name in correctly? ie NOT \\Server but Server
Are you attempting to connect to an instance? ie Server\inst2
Do you have the correct password/login
Is the SQL server in a different domain? IF yes are the domains trusted??

Good Hunting!

I live in Rio (Brasil), and my computer is server by a X#@$!*>~) DSL company... As an (expected) result, twice a month the connection simply stops unexpectedly...!

So, I have to reconnect the DSL...

Should it be your problem, too?

(I hope You) have a good time!

Thanks for helping. I already solved this problem by restore my computer registry. I suspect it cause by testing of ODBC connection on crystal report.
