I'm using the minidumpview that was mentioned earlier. I get a wall of text
in a command prompt window. There's a section called Exception Information,
which I assume to point to the culprit, but I can't decipher it. Looks like
this:

EXCEPTION INFORMATION

There follows a list of loaded modules, but I don't know how to correlate
the above with any of them. I should probably just see about getting Visual
Studio, I suppose...
