HI all,<br />
<br />
We are using VMWARE Virtual Windows 2003 terminal server with SP2, recently we had found that the server cpu is chocking to 100% and when we run the process explorer it shows hardware interrupts and Defferred procedure calls are hogging the cpu.<br />
<br />
The server used by close to 150 users. Any help to resolve the issue would be highly appreciated.<br />
<br />
Thanks in advance

Windows 2003 Terminal Server Hardware Interrupts Issue

The Microsoft Server topic includes all of the legacy versions of the operating system, including the Windows NT 3.1, NT 3.5, NT 4.0 and Windows 2000 and Windows Home Server versions.

Microsoft Server OS

Windows Server 2003 was based on Windows XP and was released in four editions: Web, Standard, Enterprise and Datacenter. It also had derivative versions for clusters, storage and Microsoft’s Small Business Server. Important upgrades included integrating Internet Information Services (IIS), improvements to Active Directory (AD) and Group Policy (GP), and the migration to Automated System Recovery (ASR).
