SharePoint Stack Exchange is a question and answer site for SharePoint enthusiasts. It's 100% free, no registration required.

This is the error I keep getting:

The Windows SharePoint Timer service terminated unexpectedly. It has done this 7 time(s).

The service then restarts and fails 5 minutes later and continues in this cycle.

Any ideas?

I am not getting a SQL error, just this..

Check the timer job history page in Central Admin (/_admin/TimerJobHistory.aspx) for any failed jobs. Use the view drop down to filter out successful jobs.
