Question : CMD.EXE - Program too big to fit in memory
Windows Server 2003 R2 will not run CMD.EXE or any *.cmd batch files. I loaded up PowerShell and tried to run cmd.exe from there to view the error message, and came up with "Program too big to fit in memory." The server does nothing but run a SQL Server 2005 database, and there are no performance or other problems with the server. It has run for the last couple of weeks with no problem except for the cmd.exe issue. Rebooting the server has no effect. COMMAND.COM runs fine.
mem /d (from PowerShell) returns:
