Restoring a sql server 2005 master database on sql server 2005 error

I received an email outlining a restore problem. In attempting to restore a SQL Server 2000 master database onto a SQL Server 2005 as a user database , the

following error message appeared:

Restore failed for Server 'MyServer\MyInstance' .
There is already an object named sysnsobjs in the database

The solution is to restore a system database only to a SQL Server edition & version that are exactly the same as the source SQL Server
