MS SQL Standard Edition Memory.

I understand that MS SQL Standard Edition has a 2GB memory
limit. Windows 2000 server supports 4GB of memory. My
hardware supports two processors. If I license per
Processor method and install two processors and license
two Standard editions will there be 2GB of memory per
processor or 2GB for both processors?
Thanks2GB address space is per SQLServer process(sqlserver.exe). It is nothing to
do with the processor. You can increase the SQLServer address space by
setting /3GB switch in boot.ini
This will leave just 1 GB for OS. May interfere with some of your video
drivers

Beware that Sql server 2000 standard edition does not support /3gb =switch. This is only supported in Sql server 2000 enterprise edition.

MS SQL Server Memory Supported

We are using SQL 2000 and being moved from old NT Servers having 2 G of RAM to new hardware with Win 2003 installed and 8GB of RAM.
Now can SQL 2000 use more than 2G of RAM on Win2003, if yes do we need to do any settings
Pls advise
Thanks

Hello,
Only SQL server 2000 Enterprise Edition support more than 2 GB RAM. Other
editions will support only a
maximum of 2 GB.
If it is Enterprise edition then have a look into the below site to enable
more than 2 GB RAM to SQL server using AWE:-

MS SQL Server 2005 Express Edition installation problem - Help!

During installation, I get a warning message that the hardware doesn't meet minimum requirement. But I'm running it on a laptop with 30 gigs of free space and running Windows XP home edition.

When I click on install anyway, I end up getting an error message that I need a "sqlncli.msi" file that can't be found.

Could it be because I have both 2.0 NET and 3.0 NET installed?

Thanks in advance for your help.

What Edition of SQL Server 2005 are you attempting to install?

As you can see from the chart at this reference, only Developers' Edition and SQL Server Express will install on XP Home -and only if XP Home is Service Pack 2 (SP2).

Thanks for your reply.

Express, and my laptop already has SP2.

Anything else I should check for?

If not, where exactly do I find "sqlncli.msi" and how do I run that? Would that solve the issue?

Thanks again.

I tried to download the sqlncli.msi file (second link), but got an error message saying that it can't be read?!?

Not really sure what to look for in the first link. In your opinion, what tends to be the usual culprit? I have a Toshiba Tecra from late 2005 and I'm running IE7.

Thanks. I've been up all night on this and am fried. I'll catch some shut eye and be back. Any additional insights/best guesses/advices would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks

MS SQL .mdf .ldf files corrupeted.

I have lost my my database due to hardware failure some how I have recovered it now but the problem is when I add in my database Sql unable to recocnize it. I tried some software but all i vain. Any good software or way to recover it.I'm guessing that someone here can help, but at least I need more details to figure out what you need.

I don't understand how you've recovered your database if you can't get SQL Server to recognize it. That seems like a pretty fundamental part of "recovery" to me.

Can you explain what you've actually got, what you've tried, and the results of those attempts? I'm pretty sure someone here can help, I'm just not clear on how that might be yet.

-PatP|||Well I have recovered it via a data recovery tool but when I add it to my database sql give me an error that sql is unable to recognise it and its not a valid sql file bla bla.|||One thing more I already tried mssqlrecovery software from officerecovery.com|||so are u saying that u recovered a .mdf and .ldf file and trying to attach it back or something??
as pat mentioned, u need to explain what exactly u have got recovered and what steps u have taken... then and then some one here might be able to help u with the situation in hand.
