I normally don't take the time and effort to read memory.dmp files after a crash (event viewer usually is sufficient). Lately though I've had the time and wanted to investigate some repeat crashes a bit further. I'm curious who is using what to read the memory.dmp files. Microsoft has Windbg (admin command line) and Nirsoft has BlueScreenView neither which I have used. Other suggestions?

@add - I reinstalled Windows Repair Toolbox (after a love/hate relationship) and it gives me enough tools to poke around.......

Bluescreenview. I've dug into them manually in the past, though I think it was in the 2003 days. These days I'm more on the basis of "It's not my software that I'm trying to debug, and my customer doesn't want to pay me for hours digging through this stuff to find out why it crashed, they just want it working."
