Server 2k3 suddenly locking up.

Ok. So our exchange server is running on an old w2k3 box. Everything was peachy up until Sunday the 17th, 2:36am.

Apparently the server went down at that time but in a very weird way. Everything was still running. All the fans, the hard drives but the display was black and would not respond to mouse or keyboard inputs.

I hard booted and it booted fine, but the same thing happened again 20 minutes later. Looked online and found that the screen saver password could be the culprit. I disabled the screen saver password and sure enough, it ran fine for the rest of the day.

So I decided to dig into the issue this morning maybe find a patch or something but the server had once again crashed.

Anyone else experience this issue and is this in relation to the recent broken patches Microsoft has put out?
