I have a WPF application crashing on the client machine. My initial analysis shows that this is because of H/W acceleration and disabling H/W acceleration at a registry level solves the issue. Now I have to make sure that this is caused because of H/W acceleration. I have the crash dumps available which has a stack trace,

How do I ensure that crash is caused by H/W acceleration issue by looking at the above data? I am guessing VIDEOPRT!pVideoPortDispatch+0xabf indicates some error with the rendering. Is that correct?

I am using WinDebug to view the crash dump.
