Purchased our system from Dell however Dell does not include the Dumpflop
utility on any of the XP cds it ships out. Is this utility available for
general download or is this something I need to call into Microsoft to
retreive.

Three files located on the Windows NT Server 4.0 CD-ROM in the
\SUPPORT\DEBUG\I386 or \SUPPORT\DEBUG\ALPHA subdirectories (depending on
your platform) assist you in your efforts to groom and analyze your dump
data. The three files are: DUMPCHK.EXE, DUMPEXAM.EXE, and DUMPFLOP.EXE.

DUMPCHK.EXE ensures that your files may be read by a debugger.

DUMPEXAM.EXE basically creates a text file that contains pertinent
information from the Memory.dmp (crash dump) file.

DUMPFLOP.EXE is, as the name implies, a utility that you can use to write a
dump file in segments to the floppy disk. This utility compresses the
information so that it may be placed on as few floppy disks as possible.
Access to symbols is not required.
