excessive DHCP broadcast killing my network

$

I cam in this morning to myriad network issues.

devices dropping off network from time to time, others not getting dhcp address.

checked all my HP switches, found no real errors, no broadcast storms.

logged into my fortigate box, and saw a ton of DHCP broadcast that stops as soon as I kill dhcp on my windows 2003 server.

these are all on my LAN port on the fortigate box.

never have see this in the logs before, what the heck would be causing this?

why would the source be 0.0.0.0?

I have ended and started the dhcp service, the 2003 server itself is not reporting any issues on event viewer, nothing in dhcp.

here is what I see in the fortigate logs:
