I have a laptop running 64bit Windows 7 Ultimate. I created a Virtual PC using Microsoft XP Mode. I've installed SQL Server 2000 on the Virtual Machine.
I have SQL Server 2008 R2 installed on the Windows 7 machine (laptop). I can browse to the SQL 2000 instance (it sees it), but I cannot successfully connect using either Windows or SQL Server Authentication. I don't get an error, the attempt just times out.
I have the Windows XP Mode Firewall turned off, and there doesn't appear to be anything in the Event logs either.
Any ideas how I can query the XP Mode SQL Server from the Windows 7 machine?
