Hi, I posted this over in the SQL Admin folder and really wanted to place it in this one(New to SS). Thanks for reading this.


Good morning,
I am new to SQL Server 2005, and diligently studying it. This morning I run SSMS to look to verify something I was reading.
I try to connect to the server(with Windows Auth) I have installed on my home PC that runs Vista and I get the message below, that I cut/pasted from Event Viewer Log.
It says to run DBCC Checkdb on the server, but I cannot get the server started(in SSCM) it to run? Any suggestions?
I also have a second named instance installed and that one runs fine.
Thanks...


The operating system returned error 38(Reached the end of the file.) to SQL Server during a read at offset 0000000000000000 in file 'C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\DATA\modellog.ldf'. Additional messages in the SQL Server error log and system event log may provide more detail. This is a severe system-level error condition that threatens database integrity and must be corrected immediately. Complete a full database consistency check (DBCC CHECKDB). This error can be caused by many factors; for more information, see SQL Server Books Online.
