I've tried looking this issue up and haven't found the instructions or information I saw to be helpful. So if someone could offer me some personalized help, maybe I can find them.
I have a brand new computer, it's been in use for less than a week total and it just BSOD'd me and it says "Kernal_InPage" error, which the majority are saying means a bad hard-drive but I just can't believe that. The 2TB is brand new, if it's bad, that'd make it the second bad one in a row. The main boot-drive, the Corsair SSD, has been working fine and is also brand new.
So anyway, that aside. I want to retrieve the crash logs and hope perhaps someone here, or elsewhere can help analyze them and confirm where my problem actually lays.
But I can't find how to retrieve them. Would anyone be willing to help me out here? Someone said "C:/Windows/Minidump" but that folder doesn't exist, or if it does, it's hidden.
Is that the correct location, or are they elsewhere? If they are hidden, can someone explain to me how to reveal the file and obtain these logs for analysis?
