I keep getting the error below when I try and open or create a new db.

Can anyone help?

'Sql server is busy, if you keep encountering this problem please contact microsoft.'

And Microsoft told you to ask us?
Just joking...

If you think you have waited enough, and the creation of the new database still fails, the SQL Server is either busy with something, or SSMS has hung.

Try restart SSMS.

Right click taskbar and choose Task Manager.
Then select Management Studio and kill the application.
You may even have to go to next tab and choose ssms there and kill process.

Thank for your reply.

I've logged into my webserver and clicked on the task bar, I only see IIS running as an application.

I can't see a process called sql server running. I have:

taskmgr.exe
mmc.exe
winlogin.exe
shstat.exe
vmwareuser.exe
rdclip.exe
explorer.exe
ipdaterui.exe
tbmon.exe
csrss.exe

Do I need to restart the service on my webserver? If so which one? There are a few sql server services running.

Can you please advise?

Thanks again
