Server is hang with group policy error

My Server was hang in this morning without having any error. While hanging, I can't even use keyboard and mouse. Then, I checked in event viewer. It shows the following message.
"The processing of group policy failed. Windows attempted to the file "\\mydomain.local\sysvol\mydomain.local\policies\{31B2F340-016D-11D2-945F-00C04FB984F9}\gpt.ini from a domain controller and was not successful. Group policy setting may not be applied until this event is resolved. This issues may be transient and could be caused by one or more of the following:
a) name resolution/ network connectivity to the current domain controller.
B) File replication services latency (a file created on another domain controller has not replicated to the current domain controller).
c) the distributed file system (DFS) client has been disabled."
My question here is that
1. Is the server hanging related to this error?
2. Groups policy tab is missing in AD also. Is this missing tab related to this error?
If yes, pls help me to get the solution. Thanks.

Mahesh., I already checked the system log. It doesn't show any error except this. My server bios was updated recently. Let me know that
Why does group policy tab miss out in AD?
Are there any other idea for this gp error?

Mahesh

You need to use gpmc.msc console to access group policy

During 2003 server days, GPO tab was there in AD users and computers
