Something that's worked for me is to enable memory dump triggered by ctrl-ctrl-scroll-lock. There's some registry key you set, and on the next hang you can generate a memory dump, which you can then analyze with windbg. Of course, your hang might well occur earlier than disk driver initialization, so this is not bulletproof. -- Do not meddle in the internals of kernels, for they are subtle and quick to panic. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe kvm" in the body of a message to [EMAIL PROTECTED] More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
