SQL Server 7 on Win 98 Machine will not let me make a connection.

[PCSurgeon69]

Installed SQL Server 7 on Win 98 machine, keep getting errors:Unable to connect to server \servername:

Server: msg 11, Level 16, State 1
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][TCP/IP Sockets]General network error. Check your network documentation.

Did the troubleshooter on M$ Knowledgebase, still did not work.
Still get the above and this error:
General network error. Check your network documentation.
ConnectionOpen (connect())

Went to install SP3, and now It won't let me continue without an sa password.
I never had a password to begin with.

Oh, the fun of it all!

Any and all help will be greatly appreciated.

Thank You.
