Windows XP 64 - Blue Screen of Death - no event logging?

Hi all,
So I have set Event logging with small memory dump in XP 64 bit, in the
System Properties/Startup & Recovery, in order to diagnose a BSOD in
win32k.sys, page_fault_in_nonpaged_area.
Unfortunately, when my PC blue screens, no event is written, and no minidump
appears in the minidump folder.
I have tried this both with letting the PC reboot automatically, and without.
How do I ensure a minidump appears, and a system log entry is written?

Cheers
Vandervecken

Is the event viewer showing the system crashes?

regards,
S.Sengupta[MS-MVP]

No, it isn't.

You will probably find more/better help in a different forum, as this one is
for Media Center.

You might try "microsoft.public.windows.64bit.general"
