My Windows 2000 server has been crashing 4-5 times per day
lately. I am collecting a partial memory dump, which
reveals the following:

BugCheckCode: 0x000000d1
Parameter1: 0x00000000
Parameter2: 0x00000002
Parameter3: 0x00000000
Parameter4: 0x00000000

ExceptionCode: 0x80000003
ExceptionFlags: 0x00000001

The exception address seems to be always the same, and to
fall in the range of ntoskrnl.exe.

I am not asking anyone to guess what is wrong with this
machine. My question is: what is the next step in
diagnosing this problem?

Background:
-- the machine was recently upgraded to SP4 with no
improvement
-- no new hardware or software was added to the system
recently
 
This just started out of the blue? I suspect hardware failure. If it was Sasser or msblaster you would likely see RPC somewhere in the Event Viewer. Is there anything in Device Manager that doesn't look right? Has this ever happened before? Hardware failure is all I can come up with. Try a chkdsk /f and track your boot using /bootlog as a switch on the line for your server. I had to remove /PAE so maybe if you have that??? Sorry not much help I know I'm just thinking what my line of attack would be if that was happening here.
