Thank you for your reply.

I have done as you suggested, and now my errorlog shows the following:

2007-12-07 12:36:37.33 Server Registry startup parameters:
2007-12-07 12:36:37.33 Server -d D:\MSSQL\DATA\master.mdf
2007-12-07 12:36:37.33 Server -e D:\MSSQL\LOG\ERRORLOG
2007-12-07 12:36:37.33 Server -l C:\MSSQL\LOGS\mastlog.ldf
2007-12-07 12:36:37.33 Server -m
2007-12-07 12:36:37.33 Server -c
2007-12-07 12:36:37.33 Server -T3608

However, when I do an exec sp_detach msdb, I still get the error
message saying "System databases master, model, msdb, and tempdb
cannot be detached.".

Is there something else I need to do?

Mike.
