I have a 2000IVS with a NEW AD-8 VM attached. Problem I have is that the VM starts this error routine randomly and locks up the system. The message is that "I don't have enough memory to run Defrag"???? and then it tries to replace some files and the system won't let it. It worked for about a week then all of a sudden this error comes across and it won't stop. I have tried changing the OS surrender date but it still goes into this routine. Also when I installed it I have an Activation code but it never asked for one...What is the code for? and How would I enter it...just in case this is the problem..

Can you get out to DOS? If so exit completely out of the voicemail software then go to the DOS directory run defrag from there, along with scan disk. Once it completes restart the voicemail, exit back out to the DOS voicemail screen, go into the maintenance section and run repair database errors, run this twice then shut the board down completely, take it out of the system for 2-3 minutes to allow the memory to clear then reinstall and reboot. As for the activation code, normally you get an activation code if you are adding something other than what it shipped with by default i.e. adding 4 ports to an 8 port system... if this was a refurb board it may have had an old code in it and that is why you did not need it. If you want to add the code shut the voicemail down go out to dos and type activate and press enter, but if all is working ok I would just hang on to the license until it was needed.

At this point do you have any old AD-8 mails laying around??? If you did a complete scan disk of the hard drive and it did not find any errors, I would start swapping harware, hard drive to another board or memory stick with another from a different board. You could try to restore the system files from the DOS menu and reboot, At this point most times I have found when this starts it usually means time to replace...Sorry
