This is a discussion about crashing with memory dumps??? in the Windows Software category; I'm getting blue screen crashes every so often in win2k pro. . . seems that it does this when the system is under alot of stress. It says that it's doing a physical memory dump on the blue screen. . .
I'm getting blue screen crashes every so often in win2k pro... seems that it does this when the system is under alot of stress.
It says that it's doing a physical memory dump on the blue screen...
Anyone else having this problem?
Anyone know possible remedies?

You'll have to specify exactly when it happens.
If you look at the blue screen dump, sometimes you can pick out what is causing the dump. That's what it's for. Most of the time for me it has been a bad driver. I have not gotten one in W2k (been runningit sence December) but I would get one from time to time in NT4.
OP
I can't exactly specify when it happens...
Usually happens when I'm running quite a few programs... like ftp and irc clients. And I may go to copy a file or watch a movie clip and the added stress causes the physical memory dump/crash...
Any ideas?

What kind of memory?
What are you supposed to do with the "dump" file? Is there a way to look at its contents and get any good info or does it just take up a huge amount of hd space?
OP
says physical memory...
I'm using 128 Mb dimm... made by NEC
