Help Crash log file?

Hi folks,

My Desire HD has started going into a reboot loop recently. It was fine until recently and it stops whenever I take the sdcard out. I assume it's due to an app running from the sdcard that has either received a non-sdcard-friendly update or has become corrupted somehow, the problem is that when I put the card back in it isn't stable long enough to start moving apps back to the phone!
Is there a crash log file created anywhere that I could use to see which app was crashing?

I'm sure this has been asked before, but I didn't have any joy with the forum search, so many apologies if it's a frequent flyer.

Thanks guys.

I recently had problems with my micro SD card and, whilst the symptoms weren't exactly the same as you are describing, the solution might be applicable.

I put my card into a card reader and looked at it attached to my PC via a USB port. I think it's important to use a card reader rather than attaching the phone. I run Windows 7, so I could right-click on the removable disk icon and select "Properties". I then clicked on the "Tools" tab and ran the error checking tool. I checked both options so that it would attempt to correct any errors found. And it did find a few errors and it corrected them, although I lost one or two files which were presumably damaged beyond recovery (I had made sure I backed up the card before doing any of this). When I returned the micro SD card to the phone it worked perfectly, whereas before it had got to the stage where the phone wouldn't even recognise it.

Worth a try!
