Hi ,

We have a database on DB-01 that is running an instance SQL server 2005.

Recently we faced a power outage and it forces to restart the DB-01 which now fails to start SQL server.

How can we restart it.

Please help.

On another Windows XP computer, install the SQL Server and the latest SP.

 
Install SQL Server on your computer. Copy the Sqlservr.exe and Sqlos.dll files when you reach a part that it fails to start the SQL service from the BINN folder on the successful computer into your own computer.
 
Click Retry and the service should start normally.

Hi there,

It seems as if your database engine files have been corrupted. Your best option is to refresh your database engine files most importantly the sqlserver.exe and the .dll files. 

The best way to do this is to copy the files from a running machine that has the same version of the DB running over to your machine. And then stop and restart the database.

This has nothing to do with your data, only the engine files that run the database seem corrupted.
