Groove 2007 Installation Problem

We are trying to install the Groove 2007 Beta on our system, but the
installation has been failing repeatedly. It always fails at the same spot,
and always gives the same error message in the logs:
08/03/2006 08:51:18 6 ERR An exception of type
System.Data.SqlClient.SqlException was thrown. Additional exception
information: An error has occurred while establishing a connection to the
server. When connecting to SQL Server 2005, this failure may be caused by
the fact that under the default settings SQL Server does not allow remote
connections. (provider: Named Pipes Provider, error: 40 - Could not open a
connection to SQL Server)

information located at C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft
Shared\GrooveMgr\GroovePSCDiagnostics_8_3_2006_8_47_14_156_183766811.log, fix
the problem, and run the configuration wizard again.

We've gone into SQL and changed the settings to allow remote connections
through both TCP/IP and named pipes, and attempted to re-install. It failed
again with the same error, and when we went back to look at SQL, we found
that it had been reset to only allow remote connections.

What could be causing this?
