First Blue Screen, Now Mini Dumps?

    Hey, guys, quick question concerning my laptop. I have a Dell Latitude C400 with a Fujitsu 80 gig HDD. I have a Fujitsu HDD because my previous 20 gig kept Blue Screening on me. Lately, I have been experiencing a bunch of mini dumps. Are there any mini dump experts on here? I have the Error Signature information if that helps.

    Once you have read them or post the results -- good idea to remove them off your system. run on search on your hdd for *.dmp and delete them all.. You can change the system not to create them again or just have the PC reboot instead.

    You said your old hard drive was giving you BSODs, but with the new drive installed you still get BSODs? The BSODs have to be caused by something else... Like memory.

    You have many minidumps? Try posting some. There are instructins on how to do this, right here on this site
