    Angry Win 2000 Server restarts (almost) randomly

    Hi there:
    Here we are, with our loyal server becoming unstable: it has started to restart any time it becomes lazy; i mean, if we are running any process on it, it makes the work, but if the server gets out of duty, it restarts.
    The HW highligths: an Aopen AX3S-U Mobo, with PIII 866 MHz, with a 250 W power supply. It has 256 Mb of RAM and w2k server with all SP and patches.

    Any idea?

    If there's any more i can tell, dont hesitate to ask!

    Thanks in advance.

    When a server start acting like that usually:
    - bad ram
    - disk fragmentation too high
    - temps near full

    those are the first and easyest fix.

    give that a try and come back with the results

    What error gets logged? Have you run a RAM test? Also 256M seems waaaaay too low, even for 2K. Also at the first glance it doesn't even support ECC... Maybe it is time to upgrade to a real server
