According to your screenshoot, it seems that you choose wrong database: "The database 'master' could not be created."?

Do you mean I chose wrong Database Server as ".\SQLEXPRESS"? MS SQL Server is not present in my PC as an installed program. If I remember correctly, it was installed with Visual Studio Express for Web. Do I need to specify a different option here?

Update: I installed MS SQL Server Express 2014 and this error is gone. But I am getting "The database 'master' could not be created. Login failed for user sa" error now. Although, I am specifying correct password (that I just changed using SQL Management Studio) in Monox installation. What could be the possible issue here?

Nevermind, I was able to make it through. MonoX is installed successfully in my PC now and I am excited about the possibilities. 
Thanks for your response kpeulic!!
