Install troubleshooting file

hello BetaONE

When you install windows, the setup writes a file that will have listed any problems it had with verification or security when you installed, this file is for troubleshooting...

Trouble is, I cant remember the name of this file, or where it is ....

HELP..

hello HotRod

I found a file in the windows dir, named ntbtlog.txt...

i think this may have a list of drivers that dont or do load in case of a crash..

Trouble right now is I cant seem to make it crash right now....

last night I restarted about 15 times because of a starting lockup...

I emptied the file to see what appeared after a crash, the info in there was the same few files over and over that seem to have trouble Not loading, so i may be on the right track...

I looked in event viewer and really was nothing unusual in there...

Thanks again for the info..
