Rebuild master DB SQL Server 2008

1. From a command prompt window change to the following directory:

"C:\Program Files\Microsoft SQL Server\100\Setup Bootstrap\Release"

2. Next paste the following into the command prompt window and press “Enter”:

Setup.Exe /Action=RebuildDatabase /InstanceName=MSSQLSERVER /SqlSysAdminAccounts=Admin /Quiet

If you have SQL configured for Mixed Authentication Mode use the same syntax except you must also provide the /SAPWD parameter to specify the SA password. If you don't, you will get an error.
