There is a hotfix for exactly this issueat http://support.microsoft.com/?id=946517. Hope it works for you. Don't let the title of the hotfix put you off, if you look at the symptoms section it mentions receiving the event ids that you have listed above.

Thanks for the info. I am happy to wait for next Service pack to resolve. Thanks again.

you may notice the error message: Not enough storage is available to process this command from the logs, and it probably happened on lack of RAM. So there are two ways to solve it: 1. Add some extra RAM 2. Monitor the task manager and find out which thread consume more RAM than usual, and identify the problem. BTW, the similar problem happened before, you could see this thread to get others solution: http://forums.microsoft.com/TechNet/ShowPost.aspx?PostID=3351569&SiteID=17 -lambert

Hi,I'm getting the same three Event ID's: 7076, 6482, 6398. The difference I'm getting is that the error says I may have corrupted memory. Can I assume that this could be fixed with the hotfix and that the "corrupt memory" message is bogus?I have appended an example of one of the errors. My hardware is brand new and I'd be surprised (not to mention upset) if my RAM is in fact the issue.System Specs:Windows Server 2008SharePoint 2007 Sp1.Net Framework 3.5 Sp1Thanks!Joel Log Name: ApplicationSource: Windows SharePoint Services 3Date: 12/15/2008 12:15:17 PMEvent ID: 6398Task Category: TimerLevel: ErrorKeywords: ClassicUser: N/AComputer: blahblahDescription:The Execute method of job definition Microsoft.Office.Server.Administration.ApplicationServerAdministrationServiceJob (ID 4da7940f-5ba3-41d2-8f1d-a8104affd70b) threw an exception.

Event 6482 can also come if you have installed the infrastructure updates and kerberos authetication is also there in sharepoint farm and forget to set the additional steps to set the SPN for the SSP if you want to enable kerberos for SSP.Gajjar

And yes mentioned HOTFIX is also resolved the issue. As its changing the version of ADSIIS.DLL file.Gajjar
