sp_defaultdb ‘login’, ‘master’
SQL Server 2005. If you detach the default database from the server, then you may experience unable to login errors, for instance on attach.
Use the above to change the default database and you will then be able to login.
For simple connection > Options > Connection Properties > Connect to database > Change from <default> to another still attached database or master
