Slow server

[dmarquesdrc]

Hi,

I have a server with Windows 2003 Server installed.
The server was running well, but in the last weeks it's really slow in almost every tasks.
For example, recording a DVD would take about 10 minutes, now takes 45 minutes.
We were running a webserver, and we had to move to another server and the connection was always breaking.
Does anyone has idea of how can I find what's the problem.

Thanks in advance.

Does task manager show any processes using allot of resources?

because it is a webserver, have you done a spyware check?

does the event log show any hardware fault?

Hi,

I have checked the task manager and I've got a process that is using a lot of resources, but I can't stop it.
How can I stop it and check what is it?

Thanks.

What is the process called?

Download a copy of process explorer from MS it will give you lots more information about it.

You can but you need to host the image somewhere and link to it.
