Steps to test local kernel debugging:- Run Windbg from the Debugging Tools (on Vista and later,
make sure you
run it elevated with administrative credentials if you have UAC
enabled)
- Click on File->Kernel Debug, Click on Local tab &
click OK
- If symbols are configured properly, a command window should
open up
- Type "!process" at the "lkd>" prompt to make sure symbols
are
loaded and configured. This should show information for the Windbg
process that starts like this:
OPTIONAL: Force the download of other
kernel symbol files to your local
symbol cache (typically c:\symbols) by
typing ".reload /f"
(if you are sure that you will have network connectivity during the
class, you can
skip this step and let the
symbols download on demand as they are referenced during the class).
NOTE: It is normal to get symbol loading errors for
third party device drivers, as their symbols are not available on the
symbol server.
