Troubleshooting Windows Lockups, Application Hangs, and Blue Screen of Death

Learn how to download, install, and use Windbg, Microsoft debugging tool. We will explore Windows Error Reporting and Nirsoft’s AppCrashView tool. WhatisHang is another tool we will explore in solving application hangs. We will set memory dump types and examine them using Windbg.exe and Nirsoft’s BlueScreenView tools. We will analyze both crash dumps and minidump files. We will learn how to use dumpchk.exe to validate that our memory dump files are valid prior to uploading to Microsoft’s technical support. A great way to explore these deeper dives into advanced troubleshooting.
