I have come into my office to find the machine has restarted on it's own after being put in hibernate.
Going into Control Panel I unticked the box that allows a restart after a crash, thinking this might solve it. I let the machine sit in hibernate and an hour later I came back to a huge BSOD. But that machine had shut down and there was no minidump file to be found.
I did get the SF_Diagnostic tool and installed and ran it. I am not sure what value the info will be since there was NO .dmp file to be had.
Since this is a dual boot machine one BIOS serves both, but I don't have the problem with XP Pro SP3.
Thank you all for your anticipated help!
