How to Capture Windows 11 BSOD Dump File

Hi,

After many, many hours wasted attempting to get support to help, I am going to post my question here in desperation.

I am getting constant BSOD running Windows 11 on Dell Optiplex 7460. The BSOD message doesn't stay on screen long enough to see the error. I have searched C: for *dmp and found nothing. I've searched the web but cannot see how to enable creation of dump file so I can diagnose the problem.

Windows 11 has been installed for a few months. All software and drivers are up to date. Tried a clean install to no avail. Have run chkdsk several times with the /switches I need.

Can anyone tell me how to create a dump file or find the one I already have?

Thanks

    Has your problem been solved? i'm having the same exact problem.

    I had the option changed to "complete memory dump" but i'm still having the same problem.

    I also noticed that the memory dump file "MEMORY.DMP" doesn't exist (at C:\Windows)

    Thanks very much for your assistance, "Automatic Memory Dump" was selected so I have changed that to "Complete Memory Dump" and rebooted. I'll see what I capture next time I get a BSOD.

    Thanks again.
