Make sure WinDBG is installed, set it up as the default debugger then use Analyze and get a crash dump.

The next time you get that dialog click "OK" to attach in WinDbg

Keep in mind that if you attach a debugger to explorer, then break, that you should not try to do anything in the debugger that invokes a call to explorer or you will deadlock the debugger. This can be surprisingly tricky as it means you cannot open a "File Open" dialog, print, browse to another computer and any number of other things.
