Strange Happenings....what could this be?

July 23, 2002 5:19 PM from

I'm creating this thread from within SkinBrowser. The reason: When I try to open a message on the messageboard from the WinCustomize website I receive the following error:

Microsoft OLE DB Provider for ODBC Drivers error '80004005'

[Microsoft][ODBC SQL Server Driver][SQL Server]Your transaction (process ID #27) was deadlocked with another process and has been chosen as the deadlock victim. Rerun your transaction.

/msgboard.asp, line 490

.....Does anyone know what this means?

Nevermind....seems a complete reboot of the system fixed it.

I ran into this error earlier today as well. However I have not rebooted.

Let's see if this gets through.

PS. Skinbrowser seems to bring up the messages faster anyway.

Never was able to figure it out.

BTW don't you love the way MS puts things, eg.:

"....has been chosen as the deadlock victim."

I'm always the victim.

Does the guy running the other process get a Victory message and a list of those he annihilated? Seems only fair.
