Restoring the master database (SQL Server build change)

  • I am attempting to resotore the master database backup created on SQL Server 8.00.818 to a server running SQL Server 8.00.760.  I know this is not allowed...  Anyone have an idea how to identify what patch/hotfix is responsible for the 818 build so that I can bring both servers to the same build level and make this restoration happen?  I have compared the applied patches on both servers and with the exception of KB823182, KB823559 and KB823980 both servers are the same.  I have applied these three patches as well, but they don't show up as applied (so I assume they are not needed).

    If you apply the patch in the link above, it will bring your server version to 8.00.818
