Here's a list of a few more I'd add:
Choose your RAID carefully. RAID-5 is okay for OLAP, but RAID-1/10/01 is better for OLTP.
Do backups to a different drive than...

It looks to me like someone was trying to build some sort of procedural many-to-many system, without understanding how to do that the right way in a relational database.

I just tried this in my ProofOfConcept database, and it seemed to work as expected:
create table #T (
Org int,
[User] int,
Last_Name nvarchar(1000))
insert into #T
select 463, 476, N'????????????' union all
select 1, 1,...

Have you checked that the regular login you're using exists at both the server and database level in the 2k5 server?
