coldfusion 10 datasource link to sql server

I am unable to link up coldfusion 10 I installed on my laptop to sqlserver express 2012 running on the same pc, I am unable to figure out user access settings and usernames etc or settings in SQL Server itself to enable this. I am ok with use of ODBC ink up too but that is not working either. Should be something easy and simple if you know what you are doing. I will have to share my laptop over skype? or what ever else you recommend.
