Looks like DirectX has crashed which is bad news as it's tightly
interwoven with windows and AFAIK not easy ( if at all possible ) to
uninstall and re-install.

You may be able to re-install it over the top/upgrade it.

There was also a recent Hotfix for it.

Equally it may relate to your video drive and an incompatibility there.

I don't really understand why.  The server hasn't had any changes to it
with software or hardware, and has been running flawlessly before this.

No matter how many times I reboot the server, it doesn't find them.
I've found that I have to shut the server off, and then turn it back on
in order for it to find the drives.
