No minidump created on BSOD
I've been getting regular BSODs on my HTPC.
After a full rebuild I'm still getting BSODs, however now I'm not getting the corresponding minidump. It doesn't appear to be created.
The path for the dump is C:\Windows, but there is never a dump file after a BSOD.
Startup Recovery options
I have checked the Startup Recovery options and they're are as follows:
- Write an event to the System Log
- Write debugging information: Kernel dump
- Dump file: %SystemRoot%\MEMORY.DMP
I have just unchecked Automatically restart so I can physically see what the BSOD displays.
Virtual Memory settings
My Virtual Memory settings were configured to automatically manage paging files.
I have just configured them for the C:\ drive to be:
Custom sized Initial: 16280MB
Custom sized Maximum: 16280MB

Any thoughts on my next step? Thanks.

Edit: Just read "How to Configure Windows to Create a Dump File when you get a BSOD", but as I said earlier, I've already configured it and checked that it is configured to write dump files. It just isn't.
