The first thing I would do, at least with a developer machine, is enable the
SQL Browser. You can do this via the Server Network Configuration tool. You
might also want to set up additional protocols, depending on your needs:

I had a page that had a command line way of turning on mixed mode, but
cannot find it right now. It is similar to the MSDE methodology, so you can
try this:

There was also a registry hack to turn mixed mode on. Worst case, you can
uninstall and install with mixed mode on (this has been available since beta
2 of Express).
