Hi I am having problem connecting to my local sql server(my machine).
Though I am connecting to the network server fine but as I try to
connect to Local it gives me following error.

Unable to connect to SQL Server EUSD123:
Server: Msg 17, Level 16, State 1
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][Shared Memory] SQL Server does not
exist or access denied.

Till yesterday evening everthing was working fine but this morning it
started to give problem. I have restarted my pc couple of times no luck
there.
Also tried to register new local server that also is not happening
giving errors.

Any help would be highly appreciated.

Make sure the service is running. And check the SQL Server
error log (the file errorlog).
