One ms sql server 2000 instance blocks the other (thru a dts-job)

Hello,

we use two instances of the ms sql server 2000 (Version: 8.00.760) on a
4 processor windows 2000 (sp 4) machine.
A dts-packet on one instance completly blocks the work on the other
instance. Both instances have 2 dedicated processors. The two
processors of the blocked instance are in idle states.
How is this possible? Has someone had the same behavior of the sql
server and found a solution for this problem?

Thanks in advance for answers

Have you tried to access that blocked instance, to see if it is possible
to run queries on it? Have you checked the SQL Server error log for the
blocked instance?
