Whenever I try to write to a shared drive on my Win2K8 R2 machine. It writes some of the files to the server. However after a while the machine becomes unresponsive (cannot ping, not remote desktop, ..). All I can do is reboot the system.

In the eventlog i only have 2 events. One being EventId 41 (power lost) and 6008 (unexpected). That's all the information I have (thus none actually).

I have a screen attached to the machine, but when the machine becomes unresponsive the screen remains blank as if there is no computer attached.

Any ideas on how I can gather more information about what is happening? It is really curious that I can only reproduce this by writing data to it over the network (wireless).

Is this an older or newer machine? It does sound like a hardware problem, but without a BSOD or some kind of dump, there isnt much to tell. Memory is often times a cheap test item that can easily be replaced to further troubleshoot. I had a small ITX server do the exact same thing with new memory, and replacing the memory did fix my problem. It's a shot in the dark, but at least one step closer.
