As an alternative to the new instance of the same name, one can also execute
"sp_attach_db" to directly attach to an mdf file; this obviates all the
messing about with server names, instances, permissions, etc when you want
to grab data from another install of MSSQL.

Subject: RE: MS SQL Server
Here's an idea:
If you were to install an INSTANCE of SQL Server on another machine and
name the INSTANCE the SAME Name as the original SQL Server, you should
be able to just copy over the SQL Directories to your server and open it
from there. Of course the SQL Service will need to be stopped, but
because you have admin rights on the box you can do this.
Here's something that sounds promising:
