Hi All,

We have a Windows 2003 server ( Model: HP Proliant DL385 ) running SQL Server 2000, in which we always experience issues. The issue is that Windows Server 2003 hangs after every reboot. Sometimes, it has also bluescreened and has created a memory dump. First time, when it bluescreened, the memory dump points to cpqteam.sys and the second time it pointed to afd.sys. On speaking to HP, they asked us to update the Proliant support pack and NCU, but that didn't helped for a longer period. The Server will come to normal after 8 successive reboots. The server also throws the event viewer with the following log such as Browser error, during hang.

Troubleshooting done by us so far:

1) Network teaming uninstalled and re-installed
2) Network card drivers uninstalled and re-installed from device manager.
3) HP PSP and NCU updated to new version
4) HP has replaced the motherboard too , but of no use.

Hence, I am posting my issue to all fellow members and kindly request them to share their thoughts, If anyone would have experienced similar issue in the past.

NOTE: we have the DNS and WINS Settings pointing to correct DNS and WINS Servers.

Regards,
Ram
