Yeah we take an image, but it is very large and takes about 8 hours to recover.

While we are doing that I want to meet if we can speed up by trying what I suggested or what anyone else suggests.

I would bank check the disks and memory diags earlier trying to restore/repair anything. One of my older servers displayed the same symptoms recently that turned out to me bad memory.

Going off what Gary said first, try a repair.

Kicking into the recovery console from your Windows Server 2008 DVD.

Select Control prompt from your options in the recovery console.

Become to X:\sources\recovery and run startrep.exe.

Y'all tin also try the system file checker:  SFC.EXE /scannow /offbootdir:c:\ /offwindir=c:\windows

Another thing to attempt from the recovery console command prompt is chkdsk:

chkdsk C: /f and and so chkdsk C: /r

1. memory diagnostic

2. hard deejay diagnostic - chkdsk,/r,  sfc /scannow

3. boot from dvd media and try a repair.

Guys.. Thanks all for your help and input.
Problem is solved by the restore of the VM.

I tried almost of your suggestions while the restore was running, but did non gear up it unfortunately.

I agree that eight hours is way to long, but customer uses Xackup from Fungusware.... Very very inexpensive, very very slow, only in the end it did save us.
