Where is the EXACT location? This has to do with a minidump, and sysdata is just reporting it. Where is sysdata.xml file location? Also, this may sound WEIRD, but r u using a GeForce MX series card?

K, with ATI you wanna update the driver for the card. Sounds weird, but here is the info:

probably have to do this in safe mode.
