[QUOTE="Koen Zomers, post: 684625, member: 108135"] I did indeed apply some BDA patch. Not sure if it was the latest version, but I believe otherwise it wouldn't have worked at all, correct? I'm also running 10 virtual machines through HyperV on the server which all suffered under the frequent crashes. It has happened five times already that one domain controller wouldn't boot anymore after the crash and required a total rebuild of the virtual server and replication from another controller. All those crashes take me hours and hours in total to get everything rebuilt and run smoothly again. I was getting tired of this mess especially since before this the server would run for months in a row without any trouble. I'm considering experimenting with a second old dedicated Windows 7 32bit machine now for Media Portal (I believe that's the platform with most guarantees for it to work correctly), but on the other hand I don't like it enough to be willing to spend a dedicated 100 watts steady usage * electric costs on just Media Portal. And having it go into sleep mode and resume is another nightmare at itself if I may believe the forum posts on this matter. [/QUOTE]
