You can analyze the dump file with the use of command line program DUMPEXAM.EXE. Assuming that you are on an Intel or Intel compatible computer and that you are running Windows NT 4.0 Workstation or Server, you can find the required files in the \SUPPORT\DEBUG\I386 directory of the O/S CDROM. The following three files are required to run DUMPEXAM correctly: DUMPEXAM.EXE, IMAGEHLP.DLL, and KDEXTX86.DLL. You can run DUMPEXAM from the CD-ROM and a text file named MEMORY.TXT will be created in the directory where your dump file resides. You can run DUMPEXAM -? on the command line for help.
