Question : Problem: SBS 2003 Server Memory Issues

Hi Guys,

I need a little bit of help, I have a SBS 2003 Server Standard approx 30 users, it doesn't matter if nobody is using it the server HDD lights are running continuosly, I have attached my task Manager services below.
Server Specs
IBM X3650, Dual Xeon 3.ghz, 4GB Ram
I havent come across these issues before  so am not quite sure where to start.
How do I find what is causing my Server to perform this way.
Also my PF usage under task manager at the time I took the Task manager processes was at 2.29GB

Answer : Problem: SBS 2003 Server Memory Issues

This isn't that far out of line. Store.exe and SQL are memory hogs. You may find rebooting the server it will drop for a few hours to about 60-70% of that. However, there have been some known issues and some patches addressing excessive store.exe memory use, but they have been incorporated in the SP1, SP2 and Exchange updates. Is your machine current with all updates, including SP2 and Exchange SP2 ?  If not SP1 is a 5 step process on SBS and the order they are applied is quite important see:
