Blue screen error - Probably caused by : ntoskrnl.exe ( nt!ExFreePoolWithTag+436 ) ??? - 2003 ent ed.

Hi we got a  blue screen on a 2003 server.

How can we track down what is causing the error?

KERNEL_MODE_EXCEPTION_NOT_HANDLED (8e)
This is a very common bugcheck.  Usually the exception address pinpoints
the driver/function that caused the problem.  Always note this address
as well as the link date of the driver/image that contains this address.
Some common problems are exception code 0x80000003.  This means a hard
coded breakpoint or assertion was hit, but this system was booted
/NODEBUG.  This is not supposed to happen as developers should never have
hardcoded breakpoints in retail code, but ...
If this happens, make sure a debugger gets connected, and the
system is booted /DEBUG.  This will let us see why this breakpoint is
happening.
Arguments:
Arg1: c0000005, The exception code that was not handled
Arg2: 808960cd, The address that the exception occurred at
Arg3: adf30018, Trap Frame
Arg4: 00000000

Debugging Details:
------------------

Not that we know of...
I would say that it happens more randomly, without saying to much....

The stack trace of the second dump has the footprint of naiavf5x.sys (ie Mcafee Anti Virus Filter). What version of Mcafee Anti Virus Filter are you using?

We have Network Associates (Mcafee) VirusScan Enterprise 8.0i Patch 13, and are planning for upgrading to 8.5. We havn't done that yet becasue the new version is very comprehensive and we need to dig through the docs before implementing it.

Ho w can we found out which version of the filter is running on the server? If you click "about" that info does not pop up..

Hm ram issue you say?
That is very anoying - We have just for about a month changed all ram blocks on this server due to corrupted ram blocks.
Hmm looks like I'm all alone here!  :-(

Anyhow if could get some help with the question towards the version of Mcafee Anti Virus Filter I would be very happy.

Hi PowerIT,

Have you run those? Yup we did and it came out negative. Did not find anything.

We are running memtest and we will hopefully soon have result of that.
Hi guys- sorry for the time gone by - but we need to test it thoroughly to be sure.. - same thing again RAM error. That's quite annoying..   Ggrr

I'll split the pts between you cpc2004 and powerit.
thanks for the help.
