Cannot create a new ODBC connector to my SQL server

I am trying to install a third party application that requires a SQL server.
I am using SQL 2000 in an SBS Premium environment. It appears that my
install of SQL server has some issues. To test I tried creating a new ODBC
connector to my SQL server. Using the ODBC Data Source admin tool, from the
"User DSN" tab I select "Add". From the Create a New Data Source window I
select "SQL Server". I give it a Name, Description and select my SQL server
from the drop down menu. The next window "How should SQL server verify the
authenticity of the login ID?" I choose "With SQL Server authentication
using a login ID and password entered by the user". I enter my ID and
password and get an error.
"Connection Failed:
SQL State: '28000'
SQL Server Error: 18456
[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server] Login failed for sqladmin.
Note: This sqladmin ID is a member of the Domain Admins group and has DBO in
SQL server.
Did you activate Mixed mode authentication on the server ?
