Re: Re:Debugging in the device-kernel

A test system to use as a target should cost around $500 to $1000.
DriverStudio was selling for over $2000. Not a smart investment any more.
When 9x was in use, it was the only decent debugger and I used SoftIce on NT
4 to keep the interfaces the same. Also Windbg was a piece of junk that
caused your host system to blow up far too often, but that has been fixed
and it outshines SoftIce just as the sun outshines a match.

Hi mate

I would highly recommend NuMega SoftIce - this is really
wonderfull debugger that, unlike MS tools, does not require a second
machine in order to do the debugging (although it tends to break with
every
new release of Windows, so you have to catch up with product updates)
