Comment: When I log off my machine I receive this error saying something like drwtsn.dll or exe. has generated an error . It then closes out and logs off without me having to click on the error box. How can I troubleshoot and fix this?

Reply: (edit)I would change the way Doc works from scratch if i where you.. Fancy this? By default whenever an application error occurs in Windows NT, Dr Watson is launched and the debugger started automatically. The extra resources needed for the debugger can sometimes push the system over the edge. It is possible to stop the debugger from launching by changing this setting. Go to start,run type regedit (or regedt32) and find this string:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\WindowsNT\CurrentVers... Change the value of 'Auto' to equal '0' to disable the Doc :) Best,
Morgan Hansen

Reply: (edit)One word of caution...as I'm sure Morgan would agree, editing your registry can cause your machine to stop working altogether. It's advisable to backup your registry before editing it as a precaution.
