More IIS crashing and blank .asp pages

Thu Feb 24 14:55:31 EST 2000

OK, I thought I fixed the crashing bug by stepping up to the newest Python
language version (as well as the win32 extensions).
Now, my server is spitting out blank .asp pages for those which use python.
If Python is not declared as the page language, the asp pages work fine. 
After the install, the blanks started appearing.
All the paths look fine in registry.
I just checked the machine again, and it has crashed again as a result of
something in the python threading (same as error that was happening). This
leads me to believe that the python actually IS being executed. However, the
output is just the blanks...
Any clues?

( Intel dual PIII 550 Xeon, 1G RAM, NT 4.0 SP 6a, IIS 4)

p.s.: the blank pages source look like this:
<!DOCTYPE HTML PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD W3 HTML//EN">
<HTML>
<HEAD>

<META content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1" http-equiv=Content-Type>
</HEAD>
<BODY></BODY></HTML>

and the error in app log is still:
