partitioning and dual booting advice (netbook ...eeek)

No a crash dump is a report that is created by windows when something goes wrong, it is built that way so people can read those reports and tell you what went wrong and how (if possible) to fix it.

think so thanks

i wantedto try ubuntu...
but even if it is a faster os.. its not gonna make a huge difference surely?

at least this window 7 starter is nice and stable and comfortable to use

yea, i sumtimes edit posts, sumtimes not
not sure wat im doing

Lol, you're hard to keep up with, have you had a bluescreen?

i had the warning as i said , a few times after i tried to run ubuntu from a usb, then when trying to boot back to windows, it says there was sum error, and needs to do a fix, sumtimes didnt say anything, and goes to a blue screen, with white light effect at the top,
then i dunno if its scanning for issues, or just crashed, so i tookbattery out and restarted.
but since not trying anymore ubuntu stuff, it hasnt happened

so.. wat do u reckon boss?

I think that was because you didn't let it shut down properly.

Do you see a file in C:\Windows\Minidump ?

I really don't think you will.

there isnt even a folder called minidump

Then you have no dump reports. :)

So it wasn't a crash, it was from just not being shut down properly.

You're good to go.
