Descriptive Problem Summary:

While I was filling out this bug report I arrived at the "Does the problem occur in other user accounts?" question, so I tried to login with another account, and it worked. Then I connected with my main account, and it too, worked. Still, DS crashed, so here is the log.

Notice the fault offset is different by 1 between the two.

Unfortunately a fault in ntdll.dll is impossible for me to trace. If you get this to crash again and can create a mini-dump file, that might help.

The only thing I know for sure about this crash is that it's a stack overflow.

Are minidumps from DebugDiag 2 OK or do you need minidumps from WER specifically? I don't know if they're any different.

Just a .dmp file that the Windows debugger can read.

[edit]
To be clear, I don't need a huge file like multiple gigabytes containing the whole memory dump. A minidump should be fine as long as it's able to examine the stack.

So far I'm looking through your dump file and it's showing me there's some kind of infinite loop in an HTTP request that's causing the stack overflow. I haven't yet determined the exact cause, although it would help to know the URL.

What game were you trying to join when this happened? What was the exact set of steps you followed? That info may help.

[edit]
If you know whether the game has a preload_rsc URL, that would be helpful too. This appears to be a factor.
