Random BSODs, problem with minidump file but not with kernel mem dump
Hey, guys
I have been having some odd behavior with my Win 7 (64) OS. First, I experienced several BSODs but no files were written to my windows\minidump directory. I made sure to have the Startup and Recovery settings selected (ie., Write an Event checkbox was selected and small memory dump was selected). But no memory dump file was ever created. I switched to kernel memory dump, and I think one was written, and should be reflected in the SF Diagnostic Tool report.
Anyway, I simply want know what is causing the BSOD and how to fix it. And guidance will be greatly appreciated.
