Hi,

This is used in connection with memory dumps - you can disable these by - right clicking on My Computer, selecting Properties and then the Advanced tab. Click on the Settings button in 'Startup and Recovery'. In the bottom pane - under 'Write debugging information' - click on the down arrow and then select 'None' - OK your way out

Memory dumps happen when the system or an application crashes so can be caused by almost anything

Just disable it in msconfig
