Hello, These problems happens usually with the incompatible drivers and application with Win 2008, if you have installed any new drivers or any other application then remove and check it.If you haven't installed any drivers then update the drivers of your hardware attached to the Server from the vendors website and Also note that installlatest Patches. After doing this if the problem still occurs then. Do a crash dump hang analysis, for your convenience i am posting a link for step by step guide to analize crasheshttp://msevents.microsoft.com/cui/WebCastEventDetails.aspx?culture=en-US&EventID=1032298076&CountryCode=USSyed Khairuddin

Hi, In order to narrow down the cause of the issue more efficiently, Pleaserefer the following steps to perform a Clean Boot and restart the computer in Safe Mode to isolate third party application influence. Step 1: Perform a Clean Boot 1. Click "Start", go to "Run", and type "msconfig" in the open box to start the System Configuration Utility. 2. Click the "Services" tab, check the "Hide All Microsoft Services" box and click Disable All (if it is not gray). 3. Click the "Startup" tab, click "Disable All" and click "OK". Then, restart your computer. When the "System Configuration Utility" window appears, please check the box and click "OK". Step 2: Reboot to Safe Mode 1. Restart your computer and start pressing the F8 key on your keyboard. On a computer that is configured for booting to multiple Operating Systems, you can press the F8 key when you see the boot menu. 2. When the Windows Advanced Options menu appears, select Safe Mode, and then press Enter. 3. Log onto Windows by using the Administrator account or any user account with the Administrator privileges. Please note: In Safe Mode, your system display and desktop will look and perform differently than in Normal Mode. If the problem continues, we may need to analyze the memory dump to locate the root cause. For memory dump analysis, I would like to suggest that you contact Microsoft Product Support Services via telephone so that a dedicated Support Professional can assist with this request. Please be advised that contacting phone support will be a charged call.
