How to repair SQL Server after a dcpromo?

Hello. I have the misfortune of trying to repair a SQL Server 2005 instance after the server was dcpromo'ed. I know very little about SQL server. I can access the database with SQL Server Management Studio Express using Windows Auth (I don't know the sa password). I can add users, change permissions, etc. but only one person can connect and use it. Everyone else gets the "The SELECT permission was denied on the object ‘season’, database ‘DBNAME", schema "dbo" error.
Using Visual Studio 2008, I can successfully test connection to the two accounts I created for myself, Windows and SQL Auth.
Is it possible to repair the database at this stage, and if so, how? I'm sure some of you will ask for more info, and I'll try to do my best to answer.
Thanks in advance!

Hi JJR70,
You'd better ask on SQL Server Forum : http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-us/category/sqlserver

Also you should run SQL Server on a member server. Never on a domain controller.
