If you already have that database in your sqlserver, just change the database name and password in the ow_include/config.php file.

Purusothaman Ramanujam is correct, if you have a database with all the correct tables in it then just correct the details in the ow_include/config.php file.
Make sure you backup the database before anything. So if any problems arise you can just restore it.

define('OW_PASSWORD_SALT', 'xxxxxxxxxxx'); the XXXXXX part is made to secure the passwords, so if you have a new password SALT your old passwords WONT work on the new install!!! so you will need to check that out too
If the old database also used the same salt for sha5 encrying, this step is not required.
