Do you have a video camera? Or a digital camera that can take short video clips? That's all the hardware you need.
Take a video of the error message as it appears and disappears. It's that simple. Then, play it back, and you step through the frames slowly, examining the messages that otherwise flash by too quickly.
To give credit where credit is due, I read this tip on The Langa List, another good newsletter for technical tips and information.
