Microsoft Exchange Server

Windows 2003 running MS Exchange hangs everyday. The console also is hung. I have to power off and on to restart. Then I have to manually reload Infostore for Exchange 2003. This has been going on now for 5 days. Now, I am not able to start Infostore when server comes back up; it times out. The server has been operational for 2 years.

I am not even able to load Infostore, so I cannot purge emails or remove accounts.

Three services did not load when I rebooted Exchange Server--Exchange System Attendant; MTA Stacks and Information Store. I tried to start them manualy but received an error message "The service did not respond in a timely fashion"

I am now able to turn off and on the server and was able to load all services. But 5 hours later, the server locked up again and required a reboot by powering off and on. When the server is locked up, I was still able to ping it and it replied. I was also able to connect to see the ftp folders on the same server. There was no response from the console though. I just have to cold boot by turning the server off and on. this has been going on now for two weeks.
