KiwiNZ Posted January 19, 2002 Share Posted January 19, 2002 The "dump of physical memory" is not the crash . It is the report for the crash . It tells what went wrong . Well the first 5 lines are the most important. If its a one event dont be to concerned . If however it is occuring often take note of the fault the first 5 lines and take it to your Technical support. The physical memory dump does store as a temp file as well . If you read the first 5 lines an they are the same see if its the same device of software that is causing the crash . If its softwar try reinstalling the software. If its hardware the hardware concerned may need replacing or drivers reinstalled . Good Luck Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nexionly Posted January 19, 2002 Author Share Posted January 19, 2002 It happened again. the first 5 lines and all of it for the most part are just saying that an error has occurred and my computer is being shut down to prevent any damage. then to check hardware and software and stuff. so I uninstalled CDRWIN becauae it started to happen after I installed that today. could that have been it? also it gives me this crap that doesn't mean a thing to me. ***STOP:0x0000007E (0x0000005, 0x804DB70D, 0xFAF9BC10, 0xFAF9B910) any ideas?

Tesseract Posted January 19, 2002 Share Posted January 19, 2002 ***STOP:0x0000007E (0x0000005, 0x804DB70D, 0xFAF9BC10, 0xFAF9B910) That is the STOP code. If you go to the Event Viewer in Administrative Tools and select System events you will see something like memory dump under source. If you double-click on the event related to the memory dump it will display the STOP code. Click on that and it will display more info about it.
