I made the chnages to the boot.ini file based on
Server 2003 STD, 4GB RAM SQL 2005
[boot loader]
timeout=30
default=multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Windows Server 2003, Standard" /noexecute=optout /fastdetect /execute /nopae /3GB /Userva=2650
The boot.ini setting did not apply on reboot. The boot is wrong........?
:crazy:

Why have you added these options?
/execute /nopae /3GB /Userva=2650
2650 is not even divisible by 4 (or even 8)!!!!!
Are you using 32 bit or 64 bit edition of Windows 2003?

These were recommended to improve the performance of the SQL server.

Ok

by who?
I would recommend you change this
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Windows Server 2003,
Standard" /noexecute=optout /fastdetect /execute /nopae /3GB /Userva=2650
To this
[operating systems]
multi(0)disk(0)rdisk(0)partition(1)\WINDOWS="Windows Server 2003,
Standard" /fastdetect /execute /nopae /3GB
If you need to tune any further then do so, but I would start with this config personally.
PAE should be ineffective really as Win 2003 Std 32 bit only supports a max of 4GB RAM anyway
