Hi,
I have a crash dump file generated from a system which was unresponsive and was in a hung state. From !vm output shows that there is large amount of “Driver commit” which is more than the Physical memory. Apart from this I couldn’t find anything suspicious.
Can this large value of “Driver commit” be responsible for system hang?
How can I proceed from here to narrow down the module causing the hang?
