  • Under what user is the SQL Service running? Did you change the SQL Service account using the devices? Was it working before. Please give a little bit of history for it.

    Also you are in the wrong section. You should post this question in SQL 2000 forum

    may be this can help.....

    navigate to HKLM\system\currentcontrolset....\service\mssqlserver in the registry.....

    change the Imagepath parameter to

    "windir\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL.1\MSSQL\Binn\sqlservr.exe"
