Hi Guys hope some might have a few ideas about this one hopefully.

Recently we've installed SQL Server 2008 R2 onto a Windows 2008 R2 server, all is fine, I've now installed the Client tools onto my machine which runs windows XP, this has worked fine and I'm able to connect to the SQL instance on the new server.

quote:

However when I try to stop and start the services I get the following messages

TITLE: Microsoft SQL Server Management Studio
------------------------------

Unable to stop service MSSQLSERVER on server EM-DBL04. (mscorlib)


Access is denied. (Exception from HRESULT: 0x80070005 (E_ACCESSDENIED)) (mscorlib)



However on the actual server itself were can do this no problem and doesn't display this error

has anyone come across this themselves, or is this just because I'm on XP

It looks like you don't have the privilege to stop the SQL Server service. How are you trying to stop the service?
