any help would be greatly appreciated..I am goin to bed now but will check in the am.Thanks so much

Hi carol and welcome unfortunately your zip didn't contain all necessary files please read this:

We do need the DMP file as it contains the only record of the sequence of events leading up to the crash, what drivers were loaded, and what was responsible.

You may be able to get the DMP files without crashing by booting into safe mode (F8) with networking.

To enable us to assist you with your computer's BSOD symptoms, upload the contents of your "\Windows\Minidump" folder.

The procedure:

* Copy the contents of \Windows\Minidump to another (temporary) location somewhere on your machine.
* Zip up the copy.
* Attach the ZIP archive to your post using the "paperclip" (file attachments) button.
*If the files are too large please upload them to a file sharing service like "Rapidshare" and put a link to them in your reply.


To ensure minidumps are enabled:

* Go to Start, in the Search Box type: sysdm.cpl, press Enter.
* Under the Advanced tab, click on the Startup and Recovery Settings... button.
* Ensure that Automatically restart is unchecked.
* Under the Write Debugging Information header select Small memory dump (256 kB) in the dropdown box (the 256kb varies).
* Ensure that the Small Dump Directory is listed as %systemroot%\Minidump.
* OK your way out.
* Reboot if changes have been made.

Thank you

Seth

This folder says it is empty also. Is it because I did a system restore back to 2 weeks ago? when i looked in the event viewer filer it showed i had 14,000 things.. geesh maybe i need to put it back to yesterday? or if you know another way ?

Hi Carol,

Don't do that, I have been looking through your event logs and come up with many error instances not liking the Apple software that is installed so please uninstall Itunes and see if the problem persists.

Well that a good thing if system restore fixed it and if flash player crashes the system then it's a good idea like you said just to forget updating it it could very well be buggy. Or maybe just go to the website and download it yourself and uninstall the version you have and then install it. If it's not giving you issues though my opinion is don't fix if it's not broken.
