The server has been randomly restarting itself. Event
Viewer up to today had been simply recording the
unexpected shutdown. However, today it finally gave the
following message:
Event Type: Information
Event Source: Save Dump
Event Category: None
Event ID: 1001
Date: 7/10/2003
Time: 11:59:24 AM
User: N/A
Computer: MAIN
Description:
The computer has rebooted from a bugcheck. The bugcheck
was: 0x0000007f (0x00000008, 0x00000000, 0x00000000,
0x00000000). Microsoft Windows 2000 [v15.2195]. A dump was
saved in: C:\WINNT\MEMORY.DMP.

Anyone seen this before or is this a paid incident problem?
 
To be able to see the blue screen stop message; Control
Panel|System|Advanced|Startup and Recovery, I usually like to uncheck
"Automatically reboot" this way you get a chance to read the stop error.

The "unexpected shutdown" may be a power problem. I would look at a possible
faulty (or undersized) pc power supply, UPS, bad battery, or the circuit
feeding the outlet that the pc is plugged into.
