Crashing server (Event ID 333)

Hello,
We experience problems with machines running SQL Servers 2005 in our
production environment. This problem is rather connected to OS or network
settings but hopefully someone here can help. The error below appears several
times in a minute and leads to crash of a machine.
We have clustered environment Windows Servers 2003 SP2 x64 + SQL Server 2005
SP2. This problem started to occur after installation of automatic updates
(bunch of security updates).
Has anyone solved similar issue? Could someone help to track down the problem?
Many thanks
eXavier

>|||Hello,
I agree with Kevin it's best taht you call MS PSS for memory dump analysis
on this server crash issue. For a complete list of Microsoft Product
Support Services phone numbers, please go to the following address on the
World Wide Web:
http://support.microsoft.com/directory/overview.asp
Also, you may want to use add/edit the following registry key to see if it
helps
In the new HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\System\CurrentControlSet\Control\Session
Manager\Configuration Manager subkey, configure the following entry:
Name: RegistryLazyFlushInterval
Data Type: REG_DWORD
Value data: 60 (decimal)
You may try to increase Windows paging file size to see if it's helpful.
It's possible that this kind of issue occurs when there are some issues
related to server hardware driver. For example, if the operating system
cannot satisfy the contiguous memory blocks under the 4 GB space, the
server may become unresponsive.

Please let's know if you have any further questions or comments. Thanks.
