Here is a simple guide on how to Enable or Disable Memory Dumps Initially for windows 7/Vista

Dump options can be configured by going to System Properties on your computer. Under Startup and Recovery is a Settings button, which you can click to choose which of the three dump options you would like to have. It also shows you the file name and location where the dump file is created.

Ok, this is how, Go to COMPUTER > RIGHT CLICK > SELECT PROPERTIES > ADVANCED SYSTEM SETTINGS;

Thought this may come in useful should you encounter bsod problems so that you can produce it for a bsod analyst to analyse if and when requested.

It is very simple to change the settings and may prove useful for many.

Hope you found this useful!

Thanks once again Bugsy.

It is worth mentioning that anyone who really gets annoyed (ME ! :P ) that the computer automatically reboots before information on the "Blue Screen" can be read, should "Untick" the box where it says Automatically restart (See the last picture in Bugsy's post)

Once again I will push the worth of downloading Blue Screen View to read the mini-dump in the abscence of an experienced BSOD analyst.
