Hi Paul,

For the 2020 error, we can refer to the article:

272568 Event ID 2019 or 2020 or "Insufficient System Resources" Error
Returned
http://support.microsoft.com/?id=272568

If this does not work, we can try the pstat.exe to get the memory usage
list.

http://www.microsoft.com/windows2000/techinfo/reskit/tools/existing/pstat-o.
asp

Compare the log of pstat.exe for different time, I think we can find which
processor or driver causes the memory leak.

Thanks for using Microsoft News Group!

Sincerely,

Steven Liu

| Using PoolMon (See Microsoft KB article 177415) I noticed that the tab
item
| Strg is increasing over time.It uses more and more bytes. I have only
found
| 1 article concerning Strg tag and it doesn't appear to apply (KB article
| 262386).
|
| The Paged Kernal memory continues to climb until the computer locks.
|
| We have looked at our apps and can not find a memory leak. Any ideas to
| where to go from here would be appreciated.
