It appears that Microsoft Web Platform Installer has installed ok but when I select DotNetNuke Community Edition from there, I accept the agreement, specified for a new website to be installed on localhost on port 80 on network drive.
Specify SQL Server and Create new database but it doesnt like the username and password I am entering in and Im not sure what it should be.
Database Admin im using sa and password of sa.
Database username - im using same credentials I signed up to the online demo with.
It says login failed for sa when I try to install.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated because my online demo finishes today.

does your sql server installation accept mixed authentication, i.e. both SQL and Windows user accounts?

Managed to resolve this in the end.
My SQL was only set to accept Windows authentication so I changed it to accept both Windows and SQL authentication.
