I'd love to replace the machine, but we're a non-profit, so we have to
try and make it work. I have some replacement memory, so we'll see if
that fixes it. I was hoping for something like replication in SQL
Server, so I could have a replacement ready to go, so users would hardly
notice anything.

Thanks,
Erick

It really depends on what you are trying to achieve. Based on your
follow-up note, I'd suggest the most direct course of action is to get
new hardware and replace the existing server. There are a variety of
strategies available to provide continuity and recovery without Windows
clustering, but with a flakey source machine the fundamental precept of
HA is violated. Before trying to achieve an additional 9 of availability
through a new piece of the puzzle, the current pieces should be in place
to provide the first nines.
