Win2K Server Random Reboot

[Panda On Smack]

Ive got win2k server running on my 2nd pc and ive just put IIS on it so i can use it as a test server but since doing this its randomly rebooting for no obvious reason.

Wondered if anyone else had experienced this. i know it could be a million things but is the IIS a coincedence?

if the box has a net conn, did you patch it before turning IIS on ?

btw use apache

Anything in the event logs to give you a clue ?

You could try and disable auto-rebooting which will/should result in a normal bluescreen error when windows crash. Maybe that could help you to identify the error a bit easier.

Right-click My Computer > Advanced > Startup and Recovery > Settings > Untick "Automatically restart".
