Hey guys, I'm starting to get a bit peeved while trying to figure out and issue i'm having with a server I built for a client roughly 6+ months ago. Its been running faithfully up until the last 2 days where the system has completely shut down around the same time on two different days.
**EDIT**: System Specs

As you can see the system is running fairly cool, it is on a Tripplite UPS, the first time it wasn't because we thought the UPS wasn't working properly. I just tested it by unplugging the system into it and unplugging it from the wall (ran the server on the UPS for well over 30 minutes with no issue). The server is in the location where people would hear the beeping in the UPS were to run out of battery or be running on it. No one reported hearing anything and they are constantly next to it. I was over there hooking up the UPS about and hour or so before the system shutdown again so I know everything was working fine before leaving. The two 1TB drives are in a mirror raid setup and are only used for raw data. Other main services that are running are Acronis Backup and Recovery 10 going to a 2TB USB 3.0 IOSafe, and a Foxpro program they use for their inventory software. Most users are going home right about 30 minutes before it shuts off so it wasn't under any special load either. I am very stumped by this, anyone have a clue?
The first was around 4:32pm yesterday and the second was at 4:47pm today. Checking the "System" event log shows the following.
Information 6/9/2011 5:14:42 PM Kernel-General 12 None
Information 6/9/2011 4:26:17 PM Service Control Manager 7036 None

The last 3 events refer to different services going into a stop state, shouldn't be anything out of the ordinary there.
Diagnostic System Host
Application Experince
WinHTTP Web Proxy Auto-Discovery
Windows Modules Installer
The only difference in the event logs from todays (above list) and yesterdays was this single event log that was dead last one before the system had been rebooted.
