Hi,

SA login is the administrative login for the MSSQL.. To Change the MSSQL SA password you have to execute following commands from command prompt of your server:

1) Go to the command prompt of the server & type in command prompt osql -L
This command will list all the MSSQL servers near you.

2) Copy full name of required MSSQL server & type
Code:
osql -S copied_servername -E
By this command you'll connect to MSSQL server using administrator account.
3) To change sa password you should execute the following query:

Code:
sp_password NULL,'new_password','sa' go
Now try to login to MSSQL using new password..
