Okay mate. What program do I use to view it. I assumed a dmp file would be opeed in notebook but it's in gobbledegook!

you need to install the program then symbols for your OS and Service pack that you are running

Found out how to do it in google but for some reason I can't fing the debuglog.txt file. It's not there!

I've attched the dmp file if someone can kindly open it up for me please to find a solution. DF dollars waiting:

Edit: Fuck it! It won't let me attach the file. No dmp's allowed to attach.

This is really starting to piss me off. I'm trying to install the debugger. I've followed instructions from another site to the letter but it doesn't seem to generate a debuglog.txt file.Can't even get off first base. I know I should have stayed in bed this morning. What's the best way to upload the raw dmp file so someone can have a look at it for me?

Thanks mate. I'm downloading the tools now but quite a big file. Do I open up the windbg after the tools have been installed?

Change the extension to one that is accepted like pdf or doc or jpg or something. (Dunno whether you will be caught out by file size limits though)

Edit: This was a response to post 6, and sorry I don't have the tool thingy myself.

Cheers mate. I assume thats within the windbg program?

[Argyll]

Fuck it I'm just gonna reformat. Haven't done it for about a year anyway. Thanks for your help. DF dollars to Totally random and OC.
