so no I do not expect the error report to say 4231st cap in the XYX board is bad
but if hardware id that the M/B is going bad or the power supply volts are out of spec
nor that the report will be able to tell me exactly what software conflict that is the problem

so how about a simple the ''unexpected shut down'' was do to a hardware flaw
or if software say that
with out going into massive detail on the problem ?
or just a KISS trouble report but better then the MS no clue reports
You are asking for a simple explanation to what is almost never a single point of failure problem.

Sometimes software causes hardware to fault and sometimes hardware causes software to fault.

Sometimes one piece of software causes a second piece of software to cause hardware to fault.

Without knowing what caused what to fault the knowledge that it was a ______ fault is useless.
