Do you ever get a error like ?

Then you go like OMFG WTF BBQ NOT EVEN THIS BACKED UP DB IS WORKING D;!

well, This tut is to help you fix this error? I wasted 30mins pressing the same button then I decided to try something else and guess wut? "The GunzDB has been restored Successfully"!

So here are the Steps to fix this error:

1. Place your db/Backup db in the following directory:
C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Backup
2.Start up SQL Express
3.Right click GunzDB>tasks>Backup
4.Go select your db in the directory I told you to put in
5.Click OK (Duh)
6.Now go to GunzDB>tasks>restore
7.Instead of using the from file option, Use the from Database option
8. Now your DB should show up so go to options>Overwrite DB
9. Press OK
10. DONE! YOUR DB HAS BEEN SUCCESSFULLY RESTORED

This is my first tut for anything and I kinda wrote this off of my head so I might be missing one or tiny things but it should work anyhow o.o!

-->Don't forget to press thanks if I helped<--

Actually you can backup your db at any places just go to ..
SQL server configurations -> SQL SERVER -> Right click -> Change network server to localhost.
apply, Restart SQL server and done.
