Hi dberg35, cheers I'm actually talking to Dell at the moment about possible replacement.

Hi Again, Just a quick update. As per my previous messge, I have rebuilt the Raid and there was no noticeable difference in perfomance. However a week later the machine seems to have come back to live. The performance has increased and it is now working as expected. I had not done anything...

Hi All, OK, sorry but since the my last message I 1. Configured a temporary machine for terminal services on the same domain as the faulty machine and it works just fine as expected. So I have my users logging on to this for now. Faulty machine: 2. Got an error on the RAID Array Manager...

Hi All, Sorry i have been away on a two day conference and only just came back. Just a quick update from the last time. After trying a few more troubleshooting AGAIN, I finally got a RAID message that it is running in DEGRADED mode. Now I don't know if this is consequential of what I have...

Thanks, I did update and run AV on it on Saturday but nothing found. I also checked task manager and there is no obvious process hugging up memory. In most cases the CPU usage stayed at 11% at the most. I even increased the minimum page file size but stil no joy. Kind Regards Joe

Hi Markdmac, I have ran the script but it has not made any difference to the performance. I also increased the paging file but still no joy. Any more suggestions on what I should check or try please. Thanks Joe

Hi All, Thanks for your suggestions so far. I have looked in the event log and there are no warnings or errors relating to the problem. Actually the only errors there were about incorrect log ons and a few about printing. I have also opened task mgr and tried to open as many applications as...

Porkchopexpress, Thanks for your contribution, please find my response above. RJS, I did check the event log and it had nothing that looked relatively connected to this issue. I will have to go into work tomorrow since I have left the ghost running overnight. I can post the event log messages...

Yes, logging on locally is fine, but still takes as long to access data. New development since I last posted. I have tried to ghost the machine (just in case it all goes peer shapped), but ghosting a single partition of 12 gb says it will take >81 Hours (eighty one hours). It has done 1 and...

Hi All. Could somebody please help me with this. I have a Dell machine running 2003 server that is grinding to a halt. The machine is almost non-responsive. Lately it takes forever to do anything on it. The machine has been fine up until last week with no apparent reason. I have not...

I don't think it was the faulty disk. At the moment it all seems to be working OK though the imminient faillure msg is still there. I simply do not seem to be able to diagnose the faulty disk even using the diagnostic CD that came with the server. As it stamd, I have decided to leave it as it...

OK, I have checked and the server does not have the management agent installed. What I then did was I removed a physical disk in slot 5 and then restarted the machine and got the following msg: drive controller 1 (slot 5) Hard drive 1 - scsi bus 2, drive 104. Array accelerator parity read...

Thank you both for your replies. I will check to see if the management agent is installed. Otherwise I'll see if I can convince the client to wait until the drive actually fails. Will keep you updated. Thanks JB
