Before i start the installation , i saw a warning : "SQL SERVER 2000 SP2 and below, is not supported by this version of windows" It prompted me to cancel or continue. So i continued, and the installation was succesfully completed. Until now i have no problem with application.Do i have to take care of something?Do i have to make any task?Is it necessary to download the SP3? Any reply is appreciated.Thank you all.---- HAPPY NEW YEAR !!!!!!!!! --------------------" |

| The message you got is normal, and yes you should download and install SP3 on that server. You can find it by visiting Microsoft's SQL Server home page:http://www.microsoft.com/sql/ |

| Just to add to what Rob said, make sure that your server is NOT connected to the internet until you have completed the install of SP3.Either a) download SP3 first, disconnect server from internet, install SQL + SP3or b) take the server off the internet, install SQL, STOP the SQL services, and then connect to internet and download & apply SP3, restart SQL services [mind you, even that may be a bit iffy 'coz the act of installing SP3 starts the SQL services - not sure if they are in single user mode at that point, or not].Kristen |
