Hello All,

Thank you for all your quick replies.

All of the things you mention are valid points - and I will narrow it
down that way.  I guess I ruled some of the hardware issues out, due to
the server being an pre-existing server for some other critical services
previous to ISA being installed on there.  Still, ISA may be stressing
the server in a different way, than previously before.  Addressing
different memory locations, being ultra network intensive, etc.

Swapping the RAM is a wonderful idea - even know we never got any parity
errors, and so forth.

I appreciate your input - and also restoring my confidence in ISA Server
- as I really don't believe in dropping tons of cash on Internet
Appliances, when a PC running reasonably priced software *should* be
able to manage the task just as well (if not better).

Thanks!

Mike

I've been running multiple servers in multiple states since it shipped,
and 
have not had any issues at all like that.  The worst thing that happened
to 
me was that a Trend Micro product kept the web proxy service from
starting, 
but that is not ISA's problem.

The issue is not with ISA- you've got some funky hardware deal going on,
or 
some other software conflict.  What are your Startup/Recovery 
Settings?  I'd make sure to start writing a full memory dump and not 
automatically restart- that way you can get to the bottom of it,
hopefully.
