Help decoding minidump files

[DarkStar]

Heya everyone.

I need your help again, please.

A client's PC just refuses to co-operate. It gives the STOP 0xC2 error when booting, so we've tried a repair install and at about 24 minutes in (Windows XP Home) it restarts with the same BSoD.

I've collected a bunch of minidumps but I don't have the tools needed to read them. If someone could please do that for me?

Thanks.

Google says you should download Debugging Tools for Windows and use WinDbg to read them.

And this helps a lot as well.

Yeah, as Oom Doo has said, WinDbg is your friend - I've used this myself in the past to catch some pretty nasty unhandled exceptions in my code that would occur once in a blue moon but would cause mass panic whenever they would happen. It does have a learning curve akin to running into a brick wall though.

If you successfully decode the debug file, you should receive information pertaining to what broke, as well as a stack trace leading to the breakage - you can then file a bug report with whichever entity is responsible and provide them with that information.
