I have a windows 2003 server with Plesk installed. It keeps crashing and requires a reboot every couple of days. Here are screenshots of event logs and task manager. Would appreciate help tracing this problem. Also, its a Pentium HT with 1GB memory, so it isn't too slow for Windows. Attached Thumbnails

Have you found the resolution to your issue? What happens when the server "crashes?" Do services fail? IIS goes down? You can't really get anywhere using those images you posted. Have you thought about receiving Windows support from your provider?

It looks like your DefaultAppPool is running under the wrong Identity. Perhaps you changed the hostname? Here are some things to check/try: Change the Identity of DefaultAppPool (found in IIS Admin -> Properties -> Identity) from "Network Service" to "IWAM_xxx" If you are running the 64-bit version of windows make sure your versions of .net are all 32-bit or all 64-bit. IIS 6 cannot run both 32 and 64 bit versions side by side. If you are still unable to fix this, use the Copy function in error message and paste the 3 different w3svc errors here

I cannot find IIS Admin anywhere in Windows 2003 Server area (32 bit to clarify also). Here are some of the event logs: The Network Monitor service service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 2611 time(s). The following corrective action will be taken in 3000 milliseconds: Restart the service. As you can see in the screenshots, I'm basically getting the same 3 errors (at this time anyway): 7031, 7036, 7039 Also, when the server crashes it is not pingable. Attached Thumbnails

I can see it in 1.png! Sorry, but I cannot offer any more help until the suggestions I have already given and the tasks I have requested have been completed. Regards,
