Hi guys,

I have an SQL Server 2000 installed on a Windows server 2003. Yesterday, i restart my server and before login to the server the following message poped-up:

"Your SQL Server installation is either corrupt or has been tampered with (unable to load SQLBOOT.DLL). Please uninstall, then re-run setup to correct this problem"

Any ideas what this error is or why occurred???
Any help will be appreciated.

SOunds like the SQLBoot.DLL is corrupted. Best bet is to follow instructions and try again. If it happens again, see about getting another copy of SQL as your CD may be bad.
