Hi All,
I'm looking for some guidence on debugging a Kernal Dump from a Windows 2003
SP1 server. I've been able to read the dump using WinDbg and it appears to
be driver related but i can't determine any further what driver is causing a
problem. Is there a place that i can submit the crash to be analyzed?

thanks kindly!

dump and give me some guidence.

Re: Looking for help with a Kernal Memory Dump

Hello,

!analyze doesn't show up the name of the driver that crashed ?

this may help:

Re: Looking for help with a Kernal Memory Dump

Thanks for your reply. If i'm reading it correctly, !analyze shows
ntkrpamp.exe as the offending driver, however i believe that's an OS driver.
Device Manager does show a hidden serial device with error code 24 (This
device is not present, is not working properly, or does not have all its
drivers installed). I will try and track down proper drivers for it but is
there a way that i can be more certain that that's what caused the crash?

Use !analyze -v to get detailed debugging information.

Probably caused by : ntkrpamp.exe ( nt!CmpFileWrite+5d )

!analyze -v

is a start, then use the WinDbg help file (I know a bit of standard answer,
but it goes too far to discuss kernel debugging in a windows newsgroup)
