I tried to edit that 1.6 Gigabyte dump file with TextPad, WordPad andNotePad.

TextPad wouldn't recognize it at text and wouldn't open it...

WordPad and NotePad, after running the system out of virtual memory (even after i tried to bump the pagefile to 1.5 G on top of the 568M of chip-ram) produced no better results...

Are there any other editors out there that can handle that kind of file (on NT, mind you)?

Anything other techniques I should try with Word- Text- or Note- pad?
