• SQL Server SQL 2005 Very Slow on Itaniam 64bit

  Hi, I am facing a very wierd problem with SQL 2005 Itaniam 64bit with 4 processor machine. A simple SQL Select Statement: Select * from table The statement takes almost 45 minutes on a table of 7 million records, while on SQL 2000 32bit 2 processor machine it takes 10 minutes. The checked the index, and rebuilt it several times and still the problem persists. I tried the database fine tuning wizard but still no effect. Tried all possible configuration regarding parallelism and i can't find a solution to this problem. Could there be a problem with the itaniam version of SQL 2005. Has anyone faced this problem before ...Show All

• SQL Server Getting error "Not enough space on drive c:\" when I install SQL Eval2005 on XP(sp2)

  I keep getting that error, yet I have 180GB of space. Is this because my drive is FAT32 and not NTSF (Help) There was an issue in SQL 2000 where if the free space on the disk was an exact multiple of 4gb, you'd get this issue...workaround was simply to create a dummy text-file or something that was a 101 mb in size or something so the free space wasn't a multiple of 4gb...see this KB: http://support.microsoft.com/kb/301913/en-us Not sure if may be still an issue here. FAT32 obviosly only supports files 4gb and smaller... HTH, ...Show All

• Visual Studio Express Editions C++ .net express.. Now what?

  First of all.. Thanks to anyone who is willing to toss me a few seconds of their time and help to give me a bit of direction.. I am on a quest to learn the C++ language and write applications..

• SQL Server Visual Basic with SQL-database connection and Windows XP

  When you work with Visual Basic 2005 Express Edition on windows XP, and if your application contains references to SQL-databases, I have discovered that it is important that all identities be logged off before you open the particular identity where you want to work on your Visual Basic project. I have earlier assumed that it was only possible to work with Visual Basic on one identity, the one where the version was registered.   This assumption was not quite correct. Actually, you may run Visual Basic applications with SQL-references on all identities on XP, provided that no other identities that are usi ...Show All

• Visual Studio 2008 (Pre-release) SQL Stored procs and LINQ

  I just heard about LINQ the other day so excuse my total ignorance but ..... if I can use, what used to be called "in line" sql, in my VB code, won't performance suffer compared to if I executed the same sql from a stored proc (From what I understand, LINQ uses remoting so the apparent client-side code actually runs on the sql server, but a database stored proc is pre-compiled and cached. I don't know if LINQ code is). TIA, Barkingdog If you were to turn on logging at your database server, you might see that DLinq queries were coming across as regular SQL strings -- not remoting in th ...Show All
