Did you configure the correct server roles (dbcreator and securityadmin) for your database access account (not your domain administrator account) on your SQL Server
In my test instance I receive "Failed to connect to the database server or the database name does not exist". Even through I use domain admin account. I install SPS07 on fresh windows server 2003 sp1 installation. SQL Server has installed sp4.
So the steps you took were you created a service account. THat service account was given the security roles of "dbcreator and securityadmin" and you set these accounts up in SQL. Then you tried to install and it failed to connect to the Database
The only thing I can tell you at this point is your missing something with the account your using when running the Configuration Wizard to create the Config Database.
Product name also is not SPS 2007 but MOSS2007 (Microsoft Office Sharepoint Server 2007)
