Do you have a crash dump file to work with?

no i have it set not to ...i will set it to log but which of the 3 do you recommend to use, small, kernal or use the complete? i am sure the problem hasnt been fixed and it will be sure to do it again tonight.

 

[darrenrd]

it crashed again and i set it to log the dump...where to i find the .dmp file now?? i am guessing that is what you ment when you asked me for a crash dump file

 

[NetIntruder]

Crash dump files cannot be opened (readable anyhow) by any builtin tools. You will need a copy of WinDebug from microsoft.com set up properly to read the kernel error.

The dump files are located at %SystemRoot%\MEMORY.DMP by default.

If you need assistance with the debug file, let me know.

thank you netintruder i will look for the windebug and let you know ...thanks again for all your help...

 

[NetIntruder]

no sweat. One word of advice on WinDebug. Read the help file on Microsoft.com and point your symbols directory directly at microsoft.... works much smoother.
