running pr3 for whs 2011

For various reasons I've decided to reinstall WHS2011. This has all gone to plan and I am back up and running. prior to the rebuild I took a mm db backup (well it was the automated one from a few days ago and it looked like it was a successful backup.

I've now come to reinstall the db and the restore is failing :(

I've looked in the event log and I see the db being set to single user mode prior to the restore but then get half a dozen

Login failed for user 'sa'. Reason: Failed to open the explicitly specified database.

SQL Server isnt being used for anything other than MM and MM installed it so it still should be the default sa password mm uses.

help please :)

This means that the database is not available.

Please clear the log, restart the server, and then post the updated log.

Another reboot seems to have cure the problem. The database restored fine after the reboot
