Admin Alerts on BSOD

[Kardon Coupé]

Dear All,

I've got a machine, that now and again (dunno why), it BSOD's . I did have
it set that it didn't reset when i had a monitor, but I'd had the monitor
away for a while and been VNC'ing to it....and I'd forgot about the
'automatically reset' being unticked..

Found it the other day, not accessable, it had BSOD'd again, turned it off
and back on, put the 'tick' back....and it reminded me...

'Send an administrative alert'

what exactly does that do? can I set the machine up that 'occasianally'
BSOD's to send a message to another machine to let me know?

Thanks in Advance.
Regards
Paul.

Re: Admin Alerts on BSOD

The best solution is resolve the cause of the BSOD. Post a complete copy
of the report.

Does the BSOD error occur before or after completion of the boot
process? Does the error occur in safe mode?

Please post a complete copy of actual Stop Error Report.

Disable automatic restart on system failure. This should help by
allowing time to write down the STOP code properly. Right click on
the My Computer icon on the Desktop and select Properties, Advanced,
Start-Up and Recovery, System Failure and uncheck box before
Automatically Restart.

Are there any yellow question marks in Device Manager? Right click on
the My Computer icon on your Desktop and select Properties,
Hardware,Device Manager. If yes what is the Device Error code?

Hope this helps.
