Then It Popup with below screen,

I have problem here is that it require Database access account with UserName and Password and UserName in form DOMAIN\\User , but i dont have User Name with domain,then i create login user for sql server and it have name like SharePointUser with Password. There is no domain name.

I tried to enter user Name like Aamir-PC\\SharePointUser , but gives error like User Name is invalid. The Account must have valid domain account User Name is invalid. The Account must have valid domain account . Even i tried username like SharePointUser but same error again.

I search a lot but i did not find any solution for above problem.

If you have SQL server installed on the same machine then Did you try to create a stand alone system instead of Server farm? I have installed Sharepoint 2010 foundation in my Windows 7 OS but as a standalone farm.
