Physical memory dump
-
Hi all, While working on my pc, it automatically gets an error in a blue screen saying that physical memory dump complete. After this, I am forced to restart my system. When it gets restarted, there is a pop message saying that "The system has recovered from a serious error". Can anyone of you aware of this problem. Could you please help me out to solve this problem. My System configurations: Intel P4 2.4ghz dual core asus motherboard 512MB RAM Thanks and Regards, Hariharan C

Firstly, when this happens, you normally (on Windows XP and Server 2003), the "The system has recovered from a serious error" message box prompts whether to send information to Microsoft about the problem. I would recommend doing this - if this is a common fault, they may already know about a fix. If you are in a corporate environment, they may have turned error reporting off. Check in Control Panel, System, Advanced, Error Reporting. It may not be possible to turn reporting back on. This sort of problem is commonly a driver bug or a hardware issue. Check to see whether there are updated drivers for any of your hardware. Ensure that none of your hardware is being overclocked - the rating on the component is considered by the manufacturer the highest safe speed to run that part at. Check that cooling fans are working, are not blocked (e.g. by a build-up of dust) and that there is sufficient ventilation around the PC - to work most effectively, the cooling fans need to pull in a source of cool air. If kept in a confined space, the warm air does not dissipate and the heat exchange cannot take place, so the temperature-sensitive components do not cool down. Consider checking that your computer's RAM is still OK. Use a tool like memtest86 or Windows Memory Diagnostic[^] to check it.

BSODs are caused by drivers. If you have installed any hnew ardware/drivers recently, or upgraded any drivers they are suspec. Uninstall them and try see if it solves the problem. If not, you might have failing memory, ror a very rare crash. Crashes can be accumulative. When the system BSODs, system files can be damaaged. This can make crashes more and more ffrequeny t. So always take a system back up. I use Ghost. You can then o back to a stable image. If you really want to know what the bug is, install WinDbg.exe, and open the crash dump you will find in either Minidunp or the windows dir. Wen it has opened, type !analyze -v at the prompt, and it will auto analyse the crash. This will often point to the driver. Gogle the sys file named, and see if it is a known issue, or if there is an upgrade.
