I got the same thing after meddling something! Now I can't fix it. I tried SQL Server Surface Area Configuration but the same thing happened. I restarted the service by starting and stopping it. I really hope I can fix my SQL Server.

It's something with your login, if you are using SQL authentication, make sure you don't have "\SQLEXPRESS" on the end of your server name and if you are using Windows Authentication, make sure you do have it on the end.

It can also be an problem with the setting of the server. For example when you change something in the TCP/IP settings you can get the same problem.

I meddled with the ODBC settings for SQL Server. I pressed the Client Configuration. I pressed Ok after that. Thats how the problem occurred.
