SALDM is actually the LED/LCD manager. LDM is the Logical Disk Manager. Typically, when this occurs it is either a problem in the underlying LED/LCD driver (which the OEM provides) preventing it from loading correctly or the MS Generic driver.
Either way, you should contact your OEM to see if they have an update to address the issue. MS has updated the generic driver Q305023 (the KB describes a different problem but the fix addresses some other issues as well), but installation may cause the LCD/LEDs to stop working (i.e. if the OEM wrote their own, it may get over-written, which is why you need to contact the OEM first).
Alternatively, you could just disable the service, but then the LED/LCD would stop working as well.

For the last few weeks I noticed that our Win2003 storage server is using around 50% of CPU on average. It looks like the culprit is the saldm.exe process which corresponds to the Logical Disk Manager. We have less than 100 users' home folders on there. Any reason why this is happening? |
