Making the most of WinDbg and KD Debugging hardware: ports, BIOS, PCI and SCSI buses, and chipsets Advanced coverage: remote debugging, Debugging Extensions, Driver Verifier, and more Step-by-step crash dump analysis and kernel debugging How to interpret every element of a Windows 2000 stop screen Using WinDbg: configuring options, symbol paths, DLLs, and more Debugging hardware: ports, BIOS, PCI and SCSI buses, chipsets, and more Configuring local and remote kernel debugging environments Includes extensive code samples This comprehensive guide to Windows 2000 kernel debugging will be invaluable to anyone who must analyze and prevent Windows 2000 system crashesespecially device driver authors and debuggers. Renowned kernel debugging expert Steven McDowell covers every aspect of kernel debugging and crash dump analysisincluding advanced hardware debugging and other techniques barely addressed in Microsoft's documentation. Discover what Microsoft's WinDbg debugger can (and can't) do for you, and how to configure both local and remote kernel debugging environments. Learn to use Windows 2000's crash dump feature, step by step. Learn how to start and stop errant drivers, pause target systems, retrieve system and driver state, and step through source code using breakpoints and source-level debugging. McDowell demonstrates techniques for taking control of target systems, including finding "lost" memory blocks, setting process and thread contexts, and reviewing I/O system error logs. You'll learn how to use Microsoft's powerful Debugger Extensions to run virtually any command you choose, and master the new Driver Verifier, which can detect common mistakes in driver code with unprecedented speed and accuracy.McDowell, Steven is the author of 'Windows 2000 Kernel Debugging' with ISBN 9780130406378 and ISBN 0130406376.
