  400KB ? Or 400MB ?

400KB is too small to be true ;)

  There is no "debug version". There is "debug information" - set of .pdb files used by debugger

to analyze crash dump. You don't need it unless you are going to analyze by yourself.

  Yes, crash dump usually allows us to know exact reason of crash. 

1. Disable Guardian. It is important ! Make sure it is not running.

2. Collecting User-Mode Dumps:
