Hello, I have installed Enterprise edition. I used Client Network Utility to create a server. I went into Enterprise manager and tried to register this server I created and I got the following error:
Specified SQL Server not found

What should I do?

"I used Client Network Utility to create a server."
What do you mean ?

You don't have to do anything in the client network util. Once the server is installed (make sure it is running), just run Enterprise Manager to register it (either using computername\instancename or IPAddress,portno or let it auto detect)

I have one called SQLExpress, I get this error when I connect:
You must Use SQL Server 2005 management tools to connect to this server.

So I can't do anything with this in SQL Server 2000?

Looks like SQLExpress is the SQL Server Express Edition (2005). You can't use Enterprise Manager (2000) to manage a 2005 server.

" I have installed Enterprise edition"
You have installed SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition or 2005 ?

I installed SQL 2000 EE, SQL Server 2005 was installed automatically when I installed ASP.NET 2.0. Should I uninstall SQL Server 2005?

You don't have to unless you want to. SQL 2000 and 2005 can co-exists in the same machine (There might be some minor issue or things to be aware, do a search in this forum for details). It just that you can't use Enterprise Manager to manage a 2005 but you can use SQL Server Management Studio to manage both 2000 & 2005 SQL Server.

Once you installed SQL Server 2000 Enterprise Edition you have a SQL Server for your use. Next you will need to create database. Goto Enterprise Manager and right click on the Database and select New.

My database option is disabled. I thought you were suppose to connect to a server and create databases there. And I don't have a server to connect to. The only server listed is the 2005 one, which I can't use in 2000.

Run Enterprise Manage and register the SQL Server 2000.
Make sure your SQL Server is running (Control Panel - Admin Tools - Services)
Click on SQL Server Group and right click to New Server Registration.

Only one SQL Server is running which is named in the services:
SQL Server (SQL Express)

How do I start up the SQL Server for 2000?

or if you named the SQL Server instance, it will appear as

MSSQL$InstanceName

If still not there, Did you really installed SQL Server 2000 ?

Oh god it's not there. I always get the most messed up problems. Maybe I should try to reinstall it. (It is SQL Server 2000 EE, by the way).

Yes. Try to re-install it. Take note of any error occurred during installation

Wow, I got an error first time I installed it. I just said ok without reading it and installed it through. Now that I'm reinstalling, that error came up again. It says "The server component is not supported on this operating system, only client components will be installed"

I'm using WinXP. Is there a way to work around this?

Afraid not.

If not mistaken, you can't install Enterprise Edition on WinXP only Windows Server 2000 / 2003. For WinXP, you have to use
Developer Edition

I have a feeling the Developer Edition (or perhaps MSDE which would also do) comes on the same CD as Enterprise Edition

There are actually Three main Editions of SQL Server 2000
Personal, Standard, Enterprise. There are also Developer Edition, Desktop Engine, SQL Server CE and Evaluation Edition.
