    My network admin fried the box SQL server was on. A new box was built, but now when I try to restore the databases I get the following error

    Has anybody encountered this?

    Can you cut and paste the text of the message?  All I see is a red x.

    The error message reads:

    The backup of system database on device C:\Backups\ivr_db_20040831003.bak can not be restored because it was created by a different version of the server(13218488) than this server (134217922) RESTORE DATABASE is terminating abnormally.

    I also get this message with some other backups. Some did restore though, which is REALLY weird.

    Microsoft have a support article on this:

    PRB: System Database Backups Cannot be Restored on a Different Build of SQL Server
