I've had this on Server 2003 with PS4/4.5. It happens when the system log
get spammed with event ID 333. Eventually, the server hangs and the log
gets corrupted.

Installing KB970054 helps prevent the eventlog spamming/corruption, but
does not resolve the server hang. Analysis of an NMI hangdump does not show
pool depletion.

I found that clearing up user profiles has helped. Also - UPHClean v2 (if
you're not too fussy about it being described as beta software).
