SQL Server Management Studio Crashing

#1

I'm unable to open SQL Server Management Studio. I get and error that it has
encountered a problem and needs to close. I'm using a dell latitude D610
laptop with winxp pro service pack 2. SQL server is 2005 standard edition
service pack 2. I've unistalled and reinstalled both sql server and the .net
2.0 framework several times and nothing seems to fix the problem. There must
be a file somewhere that gets used that is messed up and I can't find out
wich one it is. Can anybody help? Thanks.

Hi Allen,

The SQL server Management studio depends hevaily on a good installation of
the .NET framework.If the SQL server management studio is crashing there
might be multiple reasons to it.I also do not find some more information
regarding the type of crash,like whether we are getting a dump or some
error message/number.That should point us to the right direction.

As of now I can only suggest you the following :

1.Uninstall SQL Server 2005 tools completely.
2.Uninstall all known instances of the .net installations by using the
following tool :

http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/d...c63-d405-4e13-
909f-e85aa9e66146&DisplayLang=en#Overview

3.Install a freshly downloaded .net framework 2.0
4.Try to re-install the SQL Server tools now.
5.If this resolves the issue fine,else check if you are able to open the
management studio by double clicking on any saved SQL file and let us know
