Access denied when Windows password changed

I have a local installation of SQL server (SqlServer 2000). The server
registration uses Windows authentication. When I change my Windows domain
password, I can`t start the server (Connect() failed).
As an emergency soloution, I changed my password back to the old one, but
this is not q real soloution.
What can I do to change password and still be able to connect ?
TIA

Milestone SystemsHi Boaz,
Seems to me you need to change the MSSQLSERVER and SQLSERVERAGENT services
passwords.
You can get to these services from the administrtive tools (Start Menu >
Settings > Control Panels > Administritive Tools > Services).
Locate and double click on the services and in the "LogOn" tab you can
change the activation passwords.
I hope this will solve your problem.
