BSOD problem?

Description

BlueScreenView scans all your minidump files created during 'blue screen of death' crashes, and displays the information about all crashes in one table. For each crash, BlueScreenView displays the minidump filename, the date/time of the crash, the basic crash information displayed in the blue screen (Bug Check Code and 4 parameters), and the details of the driver or module that possibly caused the crash (filename, product name, file description, and file version).

For each crash displayed in the upper pane, you can view the details of the device drivers loaded during the crash in the lower pane. BlueScreenView also mark the drivers that their addresses found in the crash stack, so you can easily locate the suspected drivers that possibly caused the crash.

BlueScreenView Features

* Automatically scans your current minidump folder and displays the list of all crash dumps, including crash dump date/time and crash details.

* Allows you to view a blue screen which is very similar to the one that Windows displayed during the crash.

* BlueScreenView enumerates the memory addresses inside the stack of the crash, and find all drivers/modules that might be involved in the crash.

* BlueScreenView also allows you to work with another instance of Windows, simply by choosing the right minidump folder (In Advanced Options).

* BlueScreenView automatically locate the drivers appeared in the crash dump, and extract their version resource information, including product name, file version, company, and file description.

Using BlueScreenView

BlueScreenView doesn't require any installation process or additional dll files. In order to start using it, simply run the executable file - BlueScreenView.exe

After running BlueScreenView, it automatically scans your MiniDump folder and display all crash details in the upper pane.

Crashes Information Columns (Upper Pane)

* Dump File: The MiniDump filename that stores the crash data.

* Crash Time: The created time of the MiniDump filename, which also matches to the date/time that the crash occurred.

* Bug Check String: The crash error string. This error string is determined according to the Bug Check Code, and it's also displayed in the blue screen window of Windows.

* Bug Check Code: The bug check code, as displayed in the blue screen window.

* Parameter 1/2/3/4: The 4 crash parameters that are also displayed in the blue screen of death.

* Caused By Driver: The driver that probably caused this crash. BlueScreenView tries to locate the right driver or module that caused the blue screen by looking inside the crash stack. However, be aware that the driver detection mechanism is not 100% accurate, and you should also look in the lower pane, that display all drivers/modules found in the stack. These drivers/modules are marked in pink color.

* Caused By Address: Similar to 'Caused By Driver' column, but also display the relative address of the crash.

* File Description: The file description of the driver that probably caused this crash. This information is loaded from the version resource of the driver.

* Product Name: The product name of the driver that probably caused this crash. This information is loaded from the version resource of the driver.

* Company: The company name of the driver that probably caused this crash. This information is loaded from the version resource of the driver.

* File Version: The file version of the driver that probably caused this crash. This information is loaded from the version resource of the driver.
