The Dr. Watson dump file and log are for software developers to troubleshoot
a problem with a program or a driver. For human beings they are completely
useless and they obscure the error message that might allow humans to figure
out the problem.

Turn off Dr. Watson, then post the actual error message excluding the
register data.

Jeff,

The reason I used the data from Drwatson, was because Microsoft stated in
the early days that the lengthy 'data' that is recorded - and there's much
more than the brief summary I put, PLUS, the fact that I got, and get,
along
with the DrW report, a 'Fatal Exception' (or other) message; these tend to
differ and depend on program I'm working with at the time - that the
'snapshop' would show up the problem!?!
