If you have problem connecting to MSSQL$Microsoft##SSEE instance after installing SharePoint Services 3.0, check if Windows Internal Database (Microsoft##SSEE) is really installed (should be in services list and Add/remove programs).

If its not installed try this:

  1. Run regedit,
  2. Go to HKLM/Software/Microsoft/Shared Tools/Web Server Extensions/12.0/WSS/ServerRole,
  3. Change SINGLESERVER value to WFE,
  4. Run SharePoint Products and Technologies Configuration Wizard again,
  5. All should work now.
