Cannot Move BEDB Database

I am trying to move the BEDB Database from a SQL 2000 Server to a SQL 2005 Server as we have installed a new server and started migrating our applications over.
 
I have tried following the instructions at http://support.veritas.com/docs/275658 but when I select the new location and click OK I get a prompt advising that services will be stopped in order to continue - I click OK to this and after a few seconds the BEUtility application exits without warning.
 
I am running BE 10d SP3 (reported in BEUtility as v10, b5629, r01).
 
Any ideas?
 
Thanks

    Thanks
     
    I have had a look at that but my version is already greater than that and I am able to backup SQL 2005 databases without problem.
     
    An Application Error is logged when BEUtility exits as follows:
     
    Faulting application BEUtility.exe, version 10.1.5629.34, faulting module BEUtility.exe, version 10.1.5629.34, fault address 0x0006cbbf.

    Anyone?
     
    I need to do this soon as I will be decomissioning the old SQL server in the near future.

    I guess that the deafening silence means that Symantec support are (as usual) next to useless!

    After Symantec bought BackupExec, these "moderated" forums became Peer-to-Peer.
     
    Symantec Employees come in as their schedules permit, primarily in the v11d forum
     
    Don't have a clue as to why you cannot move the MSDE to SQL 2005, sorry

    Rafal - I have still not found a solution to this problem.  I am not moving from MSDE however, I am moving from full SQL 2000 to full SQL 2005.
     
    I need to decomission the old SQL server in the near future so unless I can find a solution, I will have to simply reinstall BE and point it to a new server - although I want to avoid that as I want the history.
