Hi all,

We are using Microsoft Terminal Services on Windows 2003 server Standard Edition. SAS 9.2 (Business Analysis Software) server version is deployed on this server. There are about 7 to 9 users connect to this server from their Windows XP Desktops using native Remote Desktop connection . They work on SAS 9.2 software for their business analysis work.

Sometimes, many users suffer system hang when they will be working on the SAS , so during this situation, there is no other alternative rather than to restart the server . I have done my best to optimize Terminal Server but still users complain about sudden system freezes. This terminal server currently has 4 GB of RAM as it supports maximum of 4GB. I have also tried using /PAE switch in boot.ini file, but still it recognises 4GB of RAM. Server has 2 Intel xeon 3Ghz Processor

So, I am hereby requesting to guide me in the right direction on how can I still enhance the user experience while working on SAS 9.2 tool.

Is the server upgrade better option? We are using Dell Poweredge 1850 server.

Please do guide me.

Thanks
Sanjay
