Start->All programs->Microsoft SQL Server 2008 R2 ->Configuration tools ->SQL Server Configuration Manager.
After that expand SQL Server Network Configuration->Protocols For MSSQLSERVER ; Select TPC/IP->Double click on it or right click and Enable it(Protocol tab)->Go to Ip Adresses tab and enable it here too (Enable Ip1;ip2;ip3;ip4;ip5;ip6).

Maybe you did something wrong?
Try Abdalla-PC\SQLEXPRESS instead of Abdalla-PC/SQLEXPRESS
Notice the "\" instead of "/"
