Memory Dump
Hi all again
I have googled this and goner on wiki however can someone give me a smaller and easier explanation what a memory dump is and what exactly is does.
Also the properities in XP
Right click My Computer > Advanced > Startup and recovery.
I see small memory dump, kernel and core etc etc.
What settings do I use and what are the different ones for?
I know there is google but I trust the people here
Thanks for the time.

If this is a personal computer rather than a server I wouldn't bother.
Just uncheck the automatic reboot option and make sure that the write an event to the system log is checked.
In my experience you will get sufficient information from the event logs and the error message that should appear and remain on the screen.

But sometimes you get a generic error like "Driver IRQL not less than or equal" and you do not know what drive causes it... it will pinpoint which driver is causing it...
