Using wine to run Warcraft 3.. caused a huge error dump, can't find the file!


I'm looking for an error dump that Warcraft 3 created which is supposed to be over 2 GB in file size. How do I know this about the file? This page: http://appdb.winehq.org/appview.php?versionId=1177 mentions a 2 GB error dump with someone who ran into a similar error as mine (CTRL+F down to where it says "2 GB" (without quotes)). Also, my free space was about 3 GB before and is now less than 500 MB.

The filename of this error dump is supposed to be "2005-07-15 11.34.05 Crash.dmp" but I searched for files named "Crash" and nothing similar came up. I also looked in my virtual wine drives and there is not a Warcraft III directory in Program Files. This is because I ran it from my mounted Windows drive where the game is already installed.

It's very important that I find and delete this file, because I have very limited free space. I have a dual-boot/dual-partition hard drive, and most of my hard drive is being used by Windows at the moment (next time I format, I'll probably be giving a lot more space to Linux than it currently has).

Ok, not sure if it's the error dump's fault. I did a search for files over 1 GB and nothing from my Linux partition came up. So.. it might have been some games I installed through yum (maybe 10 or so) but that shouldn't equal over 2 GB, I would think.

Weird.

But what I'm going to do is defrag my Windows partition and then resize it so I can have more space on my Linux partition.
