    Hi All,

    I have bit confusion. In the Windows Server 2003 SP2 64 Bit , SQL Server running 86 bit.

    Is there any impact on application performance or any disadvantage to have two different version . Or I need to install same bit in the Server.

    Please clarify me.

    Thanks in advance

    It'll work. It's not ideal. You have all the limitations of the 32-bit SQL Server with regard to memory. You really should be using 64 bit these days (where 'these days' means the last about 10 years)
