Have you checked for virus infection, spyware or other malware?

Any recent hardware, software or driver installs or updates?

Try reapplying SP4 and see if the errors mysteriously go away.

Also try recreating your pagefile (this one's a major longshot).

Sys is clean, no hw/software changes, office apps only, MS critical updates
only. Bios and hw drivers upto date / not changed. Problem did not coincide
with any update. Sys runs 24/7 - runs processes overnight -
All aps and sys runs fine, even during / after this err msg.

Yes, the details are missing.

When you view the logged events in Event Viewer (double-click them in the
right-hand pane) in the upper right corner, third button down is a copy to
clipboard, then you can paste in the body of a reply message.

Try reseating your hardware: cpu, memory, check all cables
etc etc. Also run a memtest overnight to see if your ram is
going bad (it does happen).

Hi Dave,

not enough resources means no memory. This means some software is not
releasing the memory it`s reserving.
To see this you have to do a "perfmon" and observe during some days
(let´s say 5 o 6) how is the Memory Available (in Mbytes) going.
It should be clearly decreasing.
Then, if this results are confirmed, you should see for the "leaky
app", observing - with perfmon - which of the exes or dlls are the
culprits (monitoring them the same way, 5 or 6 days, or perhaps - I
have seen cases - a whole month.
