I have a IBM xSeries 232 server with W2K Server with SP2 and Exchange 2000 with SP1 installed. I have been getting event ID 6008 (unexpected shutdown) about twice a day now. The server just reboots itself for no apparent reason. There is enough space on the root drive, more than enogh memory, the page file is on another drive, the fan is working properly, the server room is extremely cold and I have reapplied W2K SP2 . What should I try next?

Linux !!.....that's what you should try next.

I have a piece of sh*t (p100) server at home running RH 7.1 and it has been running without any problems since install about 4 months ago.

Really !!, Try Linux !!

OR: Check your RAM ( if you didn't already )and Power Supply. Still, these kind of problems can be very hard to solve.

I had the same problem on a Windows NT server a while back. We eventually found out that it was bad motherboard. We replaced it and it works fine now.
