Thanks Gail.
From where i need to run this, I have setup.exe but not this one. Please help.

By default it's located at C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\MSSQL10_50.MSSQLSERVER\MSSQL\Binn
but it depends on your installation. Have a look there first.

Thanks Beatrix Kiddo.
Tried and i am getting nothing but a box and a red cross in it. I have a 2012 instance running on that now. I need to start my SQL 2008 named instance.

Sorry for the duplicate post.

Talk us through what you've done so far.
So: have you opened a command prompt window and navigated to the location of the BINN folder for your 2008 instance?
If you have, please post the syntax you are using to try to start the 2008 instance.

You are right after that i ran 'Sqlservr.exe –T3608'

Try Sqlservr.exe -m
or Sqlservr.exe -m -s INSTANCENAME if it's a named instance
