Connection Failure to SQL Server 2005

I am trying to connect to a SQL Server 2005 instance from another machine
using Query Analyzer (SQL Server 2000 version) and I am getting the following
error:
Server: Msg 11, Level 16, State 1
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][DBNETLIB]General network error.
I can connect to other SQL Server 2000 versions but not the 2005.
Thanks
Allen
Did you enable the Allow Remote Connections option for the SQL2005 server
instance?

I've set up ports and enabled tcp/ip, shared memory, pipes and do not see a
Allow Remote Connections option
I've shut off my firewall. I just installed sql server 2005 and am trying to
connect on the SAME MACHINE
