Funny that I should get this mssg today! Only this AM I did finally stand at this PC at the appointed hour and, waiting for the event, watch the Task Mgr, TEMP dir, and event viewer. Of course, we already know that this happens every day at about 9:10 or so. OK, we THOUGHT WE KNEW THAT... It seems that on rare days it does not happen... Like when you watch it... Anyway see
http://www.mudshark.com/exhibit-1.jpg for a copy of the event viewer which I hadn't looked at before. It shows a reboot every time immediately after the file is written. Only more questions! SO... I'll have to do this again next time I'm up that early. (Usually I work late so I do not normally get up til about 10, but I will make an effort to again try to catch the bugger in the act! PS The DMP file is a jumble of incomprehensible characters, followed by a LOT of "F"s.
