I agree. Again, I am a bit behind the curve due to not having installed v5 yet, which may be a good thing. I wish I did. If there were an issue, I could contact my new SQL guy. Unfortunately, I really think this is a SQL issue, and I personally, have found SQL a bit difficult, and it appears that AC support has as well.
When you installed AC, is SQL 2005 the default instance and AC a named instance? Not that I would be much help there? Also, have you checked the speed to all your computers using the Amazing Utilities guy. (I don't much like that guy).
