I'd suggest uninstall and re-install as the local 'Administrator' account (or
whatever you renamed it to), if possible. We've had problems with some clients
(in particular old NT and some 2000 Server) if it was done by other users,
including other local accounts with 'Admin' rights.

Try adding '-s <your_servername>' to the startup icon (Target section in
Properties window). When possible I create this as a desktop shortcut on all
new Windows clients (for the Admin user); Has saved me a headache or two...
In particular for SQL Server, this is the setup we used for a successful test
recovery (going as far back as the module for NW 6.x).
