Enable Minidump's in Windows XP:


Go to START|RUN and type "drwtsn32" (without the quotes) at the prompt and hit "OK".  This will open the Dr. Watson utility.

Apply the following settings:

- Crash Dump Type: Mini
- Check "Dump Symbol Table", "Dump All Thread Contexts", & "Create Crash Dump File"
- Set "Number Of Instructions" and "Number Of Errors To Save" to 50.
- Uncheck "Append To Existing Log"

Note the location of the Crash Dump path so you can find the minidump later and click "OK"

Finally, reproduce your crash. This should save a Minidump file in the crash dump path location. The typical file name is "user.dmp".
