During operating system failures, BSOD (Blue Screen of Death-P) often appears on the screen or the computer simply restarts. When restarting, it is impossible to find out the cause of the error. To determine it, memory dump files are used, which are not so easy to open.
Necessary
BlueScreenView software
Instructions
Step 1
If you enable the dump recording option in the operating system settings, in case of failures, you can find out the cause of the error. Memory dump files have the dmp extension. To open them, special programs are used, for example, BlueScreenView or Microsoft debugging tools. Although the latter utility is designed specifically for Windows platforms, it requires the latest version of the. NET Framework package installed, so it is rarely used.
Step 2
Initially, you need to disable the ability to automatically reboot the system in order to see the error number and its decryption, as well as enable the ability to create memory dump files during a system crash. Go to your desktop and right-click on the My Computer icon. Select Properties from the context menu.
Step 3
In the window that opens, go to the "Advanced" tab, in the "Startup and Recovery" section, click the "Options" button. Uncheck the Auto Reboot box. If you are faced with a situation where the system can no longer be loaded, activate this option through the boot menu: press the F8 key when the system boots and select the line "If the system fails, do not reboot." Now you can see the "blue screen of death" and, having written down the error code, find out its origin using another computer.
Step 4
But it is not always possible to find out the cause of the BSOD by 2-3 lines. If you use BlueScreenView, you can find out more details. The program can be downloaded from the following link https://www.nirsoft.net/utils/bluescreenview.zip, and the Russifier can be downloaded from this link
Step 5
After starting this program in the main window of the program, you will be able to see all the dump files that are on your system. Their absence indicates that there have been no power outages in the computer, or the ability to write dmp files has not yet been used.
Step 6
Select the most recent dump file by date and read the detailed explanation for it. If there is not enough information to solve the problem, click the File menu and select Search Google for an error code and driver. A search engine can find a solution.
