<DIV>> Steve,<BR>><BR>> Just a thought. If replacing the
keyboard/mouse,does not help your<BR>> server situation,what you could
try next is going into the bios and<BR>> manually ,by clock speed slowing
down the cpu(s) one speed at a time,and<BR>> let it run this way for a day.
We have an old dual processor server that<BR>> merely runs as a backup server
that was doing exactly what your server<BR>> is experiencing. By just slowing
down the FSB clock speed one<BR>> increment ,never has hiccupped since.
Another possibility could be one<BR>> of the two processors is going bonkers
on you. You could take off one<BR>> processor at a time and let the sever run
a day with one or the other to<BR>> eliminate this possibility,as
well.<BR>><BR>> Take Care,<BR>> Barry Cisna<BR><BR>Thanks Barry,
I will keep that to look at. I ran the HP diagnostice this morning before
staff showed up. Everything passed, but of interest was that of the four
drive making up the RAID 5, three are Maxtor and one is Fujitsu. The
Maxtors finished the test and passed in 78% of expected time. The Fujitsu
finished in 109% of expected time and passed as well. I wonder if there
could be a timing issue between the drives. It ran successfully yesterday
afternoon till this morning when I did the test. It is still
running. I changed out the last 2G of RAM. We also downloaded the
latest HP diagnostics and it found a bad drive in an identical server where the
earlier version I used this morning did not find it. I will probably run
the newer one, but it takes about 45 minutes to complete all the tests.</DIV>
