When you view the logged events in Event Viewer (double-click them in the
right-hand pane) in the upper right corner, third button down is a copy to
clipboard, then you can paste in the body of a reply message.

Also what happens if you try while logged into the console?

The server is running the spanish version of windows 2003 SP1, i just copied
the messages and translated them to english. When we are log on from the
console the same issue happens. Restarting the server fix the situation for
a while.
By the way there are also 3 disconneccted TS sessions on the server, if this
has anything to do with it.

Has anything changed as far as the disk configuration? This isn't much to go
on but it may be some hardware failure. I think I'd be inclined to backup
soon and try downloading and running the manufacturer's diagnostic tools.
(disk and drive controller)

This error also occurs with external hard drives. I have come across a
number of Maxtor 3 external hard drives that create the same situation.
Some strange reason if the maxtor is replaced with another one the
service sometimes restarts. I have also found that the power supply of
the device may be faulty and as the device is using USB connections this
can have an effect on the server and leave the logical disk service
hanging. Best and easiest way to resolve it is to replace the power
supply adapter.

By the way.. if i restart the server everything goes back to normal. But
restarting the server everytime this issue happens does not seem like the
best solution.
