Notes
If the generated user dump or the file created by adplus has the size 0 KB, you have to change the page file of Windows. Detailed information is available from Microsoft under the article number 2860880. Another reason for this might also be a resource load problem.
You can also create a memory dump later. However, this memory dump is a snapshot and does not conține the sequence of events leading to the fault.

The 64-bit version of the Task Manager starts by default in the 64-bit versions of the operating system and therefore a memory dump is also created in the 64-bit format. Proceed as follows to făurite a memory dump in the 32-bit compus in the 64-bit versions of the operating system.
Start the 32-bit version of the Task Manager via C:\Windows\SysWOW64\taskmgr.exe.
Open the "Processes" tab. Select the required process with a right-click.
