DreadWingKnight Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 Post one of the recent minidumps from %windir%\minidump to a file hosting site and link it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelittlefire Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 To actually find out the blue screen error code and file, you can turn off automatic rebooting in System properties (right click, properties on my computer).As for uploading, many people use http://mediafire.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pricey1 Posted September 8, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 DWK, sorry, not being that IT savvy, your suggestion doesnt mean a lot to me, could you tell me in easy speak. thanksLittle Fire, are you saying that i should use mediafire instead of utorrent?thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelittlefire Posted September 8, 2008 Report Share Posted September 8, 2008 The file DWK is looking for can be compressed with any archiver or raw (minidumps are 64 KiB) and uploaded there.Dump files for windows are usually under \Windows\Minidumps , whereas for uTorrent they are in %APPDATA%\uTorrent Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mclao Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 hello i have exactly the same problem with my computer, i wondered if you could take a look at my dump file alsoIm running dell dimension e521 AMD athlon 64 dual core 5000+ Vista x322gb ramhttp://www.mediafire.com/?sharekey=740c433e00f85f1eab1eab3e9fa335cad48cf505a2a6ff2eThanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GTHK Posted September 23, 2008 Report Share Posted September 23, 2008 I looked at your minidump, and it looks like netr28u.sys is the culprit. Do you have a RaLink Wireless N card? See if you can update the drivers. Also, there was a thread with special drivers that stop Vista crashes, I'm not sure if that applies to you though. Try searching the forum.Edit: Thank you thelittlefire Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
