This is probably something really simple but my Monday morning braincells 

are not, as yet, furnishing me with an answer. I've built a simple MSDE 

database. The DB is on the webserver machine. I built a udl file to point 

to it and I am using this to pull a very simple set of records off a 

single table, but the server is timing out, and the process manager is 

showing me that CPU usage is hitting 100% when I try to run the page. I've 

never used MSDE before, so I am faffing around with the properties of the 

mdf file in an early attempt to fix things and look like I know what I'm 

doing. Any pointers would be appreciated.



(BTW, I haven't got the DB open with anything else)

A code sample would help greatly. It sounds like you're maxing out your 

CPU by getting into some sort of infinite loop of some sort during your DB 

connection. Can't tell much without a sample though.
