What is the authentication mode of the server? If the rest
of the error is something like "not associated with a
trusted SQL Server connection" then it's likely set to use
Windows Authentication only and you can't logon with a SQL
login (sa). You to connect using Windows authentication or
if needed, you can change the authentication mode to Windows
and SQL authentication.
