I have a windows server 2008 R2 standard edition. The system suddenly stopped accepting remote desktop connections. When I tried to connect directly to the console, I am unable to start any applications. I got errors "The page file is to small to complete the action". Under takmanager in performance the system shows "Commit(GB) 127/127". What does this imply?
The system has 32 GB ram, 5 raid disks each 150 Gb
Per Oskar Duveborn's suggestion try disabling applications to see if you can isolate one causing the log corruption. Is there any pattern to good logs just before it goes corrupt?
Maybe there is something wrong with hard drive or location the Event Log being stored at, which causes the corruption. See kb 315417 to try moving it to a different folder, or better yet, a different hard drive. At least temporarily to see if that is the problem.

It doesn't imply anything - it's telling you that the page file is too small for the current usage of the system. How is the pagefile configured? And what are you running? FYI - A tool like Process Explorer from Sysinternals is even better than Task Manager for stuff like this.
OK - if you can't do anything from the console, and can't run any management tools remotely from another machine, reboot your server and then post what the pagefile settings are.
