I'm currently monitoring the situation but suspect that this is the cause of the server eventually becoming inaccesible to remote users.

i have a server running window server 2003. it has been hanging frequently a day. because i found its a performance issue, ercently have been monitoring the page file size ever the past 24 hrs it has increased from 600MB to 1.20GB (every day we are restart the system)

plz give this solution as soon as possible,

Dear,

my system RAM is 1GB, processor 3.0Ghz i already increase virtual memory & done defragment but till now same problem is going on.

what else is running on the server (ie AD, DHCP, DNS, ISS, TS)? also how much RAM is installed and how big is the total available size of the pagefile.

There is not enough information here to have a idea where or what the issue is.

Servers if configured correctly shouldn't have a reason to be restarted on a daily bases

these service is running on the server AD, DHCP, DNS, ISS, DFS, Mdeamon, spybot

RAM size 1 GB, total virtual size 1500 to 4248 maximum, after this is avalible but system is hanging after 24Hr
