| I don't know about you guys, but I think I'd make a call to PSS to make that install happen :)Michael<Yoda>Use the Search page you must. Find the answer you will.

| EyeChart seems to disagree...http://www.sqlteam.com/forums/topic.asp?TOPIC_ID=65096Something tells me it can be done, but it has to be done in a very special way.Michael<Yoda>Use the Search page you must.

tara, I think we got bad info from our ms reps. I have spent the better part of two days trying to fix on of our dev/test clusters.Maybe the problem is because of our environment, but we are running 64bit windows 2003 sp1 (x64), with several 32 bit sql 2000 SP4+ virtual hosts. Adding a 64bit SQL2k5 to that mix has completely and totally jacked the system up. It is unreal how screwed this system is now.I would just recommend, that what ever you do, do not install 2k5 on a production system without having tested the same exact scenario on a dev/test environment. You have been warned..-ec |
