1)check registry settings
2)Open "services.msc" - within their you should be able to see if there is a SQL Server Engine insatlled - the name will depend on whether you have created a named instance or whether it's a DEFAULT installation

1. The question is a litle vague.
2. The answer above is irrelavent.

But if the sqlserver service is running, then it is most certianly a server. doesn't mean it's not a client to something though.

Let's start with: "What are you trying to accomplish?" Then we can give you a more direct answer
