Sure!

Next time you get a GPF (which maybe sooner than you think) DON'T PRESS
"OK". Press the "Print Screen button on your keyboard, this will put the
entire contents of your screen into the clip-board. Now you can press "OK".
If your system is still usable, run Paint Brush and paste in the screen
<CNTRL-V>.  Edit this image by cutting out the tombstone, then open a new
image, paste in the tombstone, and saveAs a BMP file. Paint Brush can not
save as a GIF, if you don't have any other imaging software, I recommend
running MS-Word 97. Insert the TombStone.BMP into a MS-Word 97 document,
then SaveAs HTML. Word will create a file called Image01.gif containing the
TombStone.BMP image in a GIF format.

If the GPF disables your standard clip-board functions, then I guess your
SOL.
