Error: 845, Severity: 17, State: 1 spid7

Time-out occurred while waiting for buffer latch type 4 for page (8:68526), database ID 7..

I have started to receive these errors from SQL a server 2000 sp3a box.

The threads i've read refer to AWE memory settings but i don't use AWE memory settings.

The strange thing is that the server was rebooted last night and the scheduled jobs began to work again but kicked up this problem after 3 hours or so.

Are you using shrinkdb or shrinkfile at the time you are receiving this error?

no afraid not. i have also seen this article but i started to receive the error when sql server was attempting a tran log backup. This error now occurs whenever sql server is attempting to run scheduled transaction log or full backup.

I now am faced with a DBA nightmare! having to reboot the server without having a backup of last nights data first.
